Brisson notched an assist in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Brisson was able to get on the scoresheet while playing on the fourth line after his recall Thursday. The 22-year-old set up William Karlsson's second-period tally. Brisson has eight points, 20 shots on net, 13 hits and a minus-5 rating through 14 NHL appearances this season, but he'll likely be the first player heading back to AHL Henderson once the Golden Knights get a forward back from injury.

Brisson was called up from AHL Henderson on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Brisson has played 13 games with the big club this year, registering two goals and five assists to go along with 19 shots on goal. The 22-year-old has also been productive during his time in the AHL, logging 16 goals and 20 assists in 50 games. At this point it isn't clear if he'll crack the Golden Knights' lineup for Friday's game against Arizona.

Brisson notched an assist in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Brisson set up Brayden McNabb's third-period tally. The helper was Brisson's sixth point in his last eight appearances. He's up to two goals, five assists, 19 shots on net and 12 hits over 13 contests this season, but he could get squeezed out of the lineup once William Carrier (upper body), Tomas Hertl (knee) or Brett Howden (upper body) return.

Brisson scored a power-play goal, added two hits and went minus-2 in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Brisson has a goal and four assists over his last seven games. He's worked his way into a top-six role at even strength, but if lineup changes follow Saturday's blowout loss, the 22-year-old rookie could be moved down the lineup. He's at a solid six points with 18 shots on net, 12 hits and a minus-4 rating over 12 NHL appearances.

Brisson posted an assist and two hits in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Brisson didn't score in February, but he recorded four assists over seven appearances. The Golden Knights like him on a line with William Karlsson and Jonathan Marchessault, though that may change once Jack Eichel (knee) returns. Brisson has five points, 17 shots on net, 11 hits and a minus-2 rating over his first 11 NHL contests.
