Haula contributed a goal and an assist in his team's defeat, as his teammates generated no other opportunities in a 4-2 loss to Minnesota on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Haula's goal marked his 21st and puts him over the 50-point barrier for the season, a strong accomplishment with a young team. Plus, in a rare situation, he finished the night on a positive with a plus-minus rating of plus-2. If he's figuring out how to play two-way hockey, that only bodes well for his value moving forward.

Haula found twine twice in an otherwise forgettable game, an 8-3 loss to New Jersey on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The good news for Haula was that he contributed a pair of goals on the power play, getting to 27 on the year. The bad news is that he was also on the ice for seven of New Jersey's eight goals, leaving him with an ugly minus-5 plus-minus rating. Haula's done a great job finding the net all season, but it's important to offset his low plus-minus with the rest of your lineup in order to prevent his flaws there from overwhelming the scoring potential he brings to your squad.

Haula scored his 24th goal of the season in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
He also chipped in a team-high six shots and a plus-1 rating. Haula isn't quite matching his blistering scoring pace from late January and early February, but he still has three goals and six points in his last 10 games as he continues to pad his career-best totals.

Haula (illness) was back on the ice for practice Thursday, as the Golden Knights prepare to take on the Oilers at home, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Haula likely wouldn't have practiced if he wasn't fit to play in the upcoming contest, so feel free to use him as needed in fantasy. Several players suited in armor have enjoyed breakout seasons with the nascent franchise, with the Finn no exception. He's gathered a career-high 21 goals to complement 19 assists through 51 games, and is clearly an option on the man advantage with 14 power-play points to boot.

Haula won't suit up for Tuesday's game against the Blackhawks, Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's odd to see Haula scratched after having six goals and six assists in the last 12 games, while firing 28 shots on goal in that span. There's a possibility Haula could be dinged up, but there hasn't been a report that pointed that way yet. Brendan Leipsic will slot into Tuesday's lineup in Haula's place.

Haula scored a goal and added a helper in a 5-2 defeat at Minnesota on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Haula has simply been dynamite as of late for the Knights, scoring 11 points in Vegas' past eight contests. He's now a 20-goal scorer for the first time in his career and is one assist short of tying his career high in that category. He's flourished in Nevada, and he should be a strong option in all formats while he's on this hot streak.

Haula delivered an empty-net power-play goal to complement an assist in Tuesday's 6-3 home win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
When Haula was in Minnesota, the Wild played more to his defensive capabilities in five-on-five situations, but the Golden Knights are starting him in the offensive zone at even strength 51.6 percent of the time. While that's not a big split in terms of where Haula lines up on the ice, he's at least been primed to make more of an offensive impact this way. Indeed, the Finn has tied a career high with 34 points in 43 games and he's collected five goals and five assists on the man advantage to boot.

Haula recorded two assists through 18:45 of ice time (2:18 with the man advantage) during Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to Florida.
EDGE Analysis
After showing improved offensive upside with Minnesota over the past few years, Haula is shining in a scoring role with the Golden Knights this season. He's up to 15 goals and 16 assists through 41 games, and his 2.6 points per 60 minutes is a rock-solid mark. He's probably still shouldn't be viewed as a universal fantasy asset, but Haula is definitely providing serviceable numbers for deeper settings.

Haula delivered an even-strength goal Sunday, helping out in a 6-3 home win over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Haula's up to 14 goals for an expansion club that continues to blow away expectations for its inaugural season. Vegas is about to close out 2017 with a first-place standing in the Pacific Division thanks to a record of 25-9-2. As for Haula, the top-six pivot needs just two more goals for a new career high in said category. Of course, the major difference for him this year is that he's being deployed much more frequently than he had been with the Wild from 2013-16.

Haula extended his point streak to seven games Tuesday, recording a power-play goal and adding a helper in a win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Haula has scored in back-to-back contests and is now up to 13 goals and 24 points in 29 games. The 26-year-old forward is in the middle of a breakout season and has been a terrific fit in Vegas. His remarkably consistent production and time on the power play make him a safe fantasy play whenever the Golden Knights take to the ice.
