McNabb scored a shorthanded goal and went plus-3 in Friday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran defenseman got free while penalty killing in the second period, and deposited a shot past Martin Jones to make it 3-0 at the time. McNabb has never scored more than five goals in a season, but he has reached 200 hits in each of the last two campaigns. In two games this year, McNabb has eight hits and three blocked shots to go with his goal.

McNabb registered an assist and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Sharks in Game 7.
EDGE Analysis
It was McNabb's only point of the series. He did have 27 hits and 18 blocks over the seven games. McNabb had 16 points in 81 regular-season games. His defense-first approach makes the blueliner unreliable for fantasy purposes.

McNabb picked up a helper, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 3-1 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
McNabb has four goals and 12 helpers in 79 games this season, as well as 199 hits. Should he be credited with one more check, he'll have his third 200-hit campaign. His low point production makes him a no-go in standard fantasy formats, but between the hits and 135 blocked shots, he could find value in deeper competitions.

McNabb scored his fourth goal of the season, as well as adding three hits and three blocked shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
McNabb has been a consistent physical presence, with 186 hits and 128 blocks in 72 games to go with his 15 points, which matches his mark from last season.

McNabb scored his third goal of the season into an empty net in a 4-1 win over the Stars on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
McNabb also laid out six hits and went plus-2 in the contest. He's much better known for his defense, with 164 hits and 119 blocks in 64 appearances this season. Coach Gerard Gallant trusts the 28-year-old defender to play well in his own zone, which doesn't translate to having much fantasy relevance.

McNabb dished out a trio of hits in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Nashville.
EDGE Analysis
With just two points in his previous seven outings, McNabb hasn't provided much in terms of offensive production, but did manage to rack up the ancillary stats, as he registered 19 hits and 10 blocks in those contests. Despite being a mainstay in the Golden Knights' lineup, the 27-year-old provides low-end fantasy value in even the deepest of formats.

McNabb sent his former team packing by scoring the lone goal in Tuesday's 1-0 Game 4 win over Los Angeles.
EDGE Analysis
McNabb spent the previous three campaigns with the Kings before joining the nascent Vegas franchise, but he helped unceremoniously end his old club's season with a conference quarterfinals sweep. The blueliner lit the lamp on his only shot 4:04 into the middle frame and played a key role in keeping Los Angeles' comeback bid at bay with his defense, logging five hits and five blocked shots in 23:36 of ice time.

While McNabb (undisclosed) has been medically cleared to play, he won't return Thursday night against the Jets, Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carp confirms that Jason Garrison will remain in the lineup as McNabb completely rounds out his recovery from an undisclosed ailment. It's been an inspiring campaign for No. 27, as the 6-foot-4, 216-pound McNabb has a plus-14 rating surrounding 129 hits, 111 blocked shots and 10 points through 44 games on the season ledger.

Per coach Gerard Gallant, McNabb (undisclosed) has been cleared to play, Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
McNabb is expected to rejoin the Golden Knights in Winnipeg ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Jets, but he won't necessarily be in the lineup for that contest. The 2009 third-round pick hasn't produced much offense this season, totaling two goals and 10 points in 44 games, but he's averaged 19:58 of ice time per contest while taking on a major role with the team's top penalty-killing unit.

McNabb (undisclosed) will not feature in Tuesday's clash with the Flames, Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
While coach Gerard Gallant did rule McNabb out Tuesday, he also told reporters he expects the 26-year-old to be available at some point during the team's six-game road trip. The blueliner is not exactly an offensive force -- he has just two goals and eight assists in 44 outings -- but is a defensive stalwart that has helped keep the Golden Knights on top of the Pacific Division. The Saskatchewan native's primary fantasy production comes in the form of hits (129) and blocks (111) and should provide middling value in league's that utilize those categories.
