Fleury (lower body) will not dress in Monday's home game against Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
Fleury continues to work his way back from a lower-body injury, but the Golden Knights have little incentive to rush their star netminder back with a playoff spot all but officially locked up. The veteran's next chance to suit up is Thursday against Arizona, so expect an update on his availability close to puck drop. In the meantime, Malcolm Subban will start with Max Lagace serving as the backup.

Fleury (lower body) will not play Friday against the Wild and is doubtful to suit up for Saturday's contest versus the Sharks, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fleury continues to work his way back from a lower-body injury, but the Golden Knights have little incentive to rush their star netminder back with a playoff spot all but officially locked up. We'll update his status if anything changes ahead of Saturday's contest, but, if not, consider Monday versus the Oilers his next chance to return.

Fleury (lower body) isn't on the ice for Tuesday's morning skate, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fleury's absence from Tuesday's skate all but confirms he won't be available for the evening's matchup with Colorado, so he'll have to wait for Friday's game against Minnesota for his next opportunity to rejoin the lineup. Malcolm Subban and Max Lagace will continue to shoulder the load in goal for the Golden Knights until Fleury is ready to return.

Fleury (lower body) will not be in the lineup versus St. Louis on Monday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Gerard Gallant clarified that Fleury could still join the team in Colorado, so the Flower should be considered day-to-day at this point. Despite his absence, the veteran netminder remains just one win behind Andrei Vasilevskiy (36) for the league lead and is a serious contender for the Vezina Trophy this season. The priority for the Knights will be getting Fleury back for the playoffs, so they certainly aren't going to rush him back into the crease until he is 100 percent.

Fleury (lower body) could join the team for Sunday's trip to St. Louis ahead of Monday's game against the Blues, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The proud father of a newborn baby boy, Fleury could be in line to return from both his personal leave and a lower-body issue to retake the cage Monday. In the meantime, Malcolm Subban will make his fourth consecutive start between the pipes Saturday against the Red Wings.

Fleury (lower body) remains day-to-day despite showing improvement in his recovery, Ben Gotz of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Golden Knights reportedly will go with Malcolm Subban as the starter in Thursday's game against the Jets, with Max Lagace serving as the immediate backup. Fleury's lower-body issue doesn't appear to be too serious, so practice patience with the venerable netminder knowing that Saturday's game against the Red Wings stands as his next shot at playing.

Fleury (lower body) remains day-to-day and is doubtful to start against Winnipeg on Thursday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Gerard Gallant didn't completely rule Fleury out Thursday, so it's possible the three-time Stanley Cup champion could, at minimum, serve as the backup behind Malcolm Subban. The Flower is tied with Andrei Vasilevskiy for the most wins this season (35) and leads the league in shutouts (eight), which will no doubt put him in the Vezina Trophy conversation.

Fleury (lower body) won't play in Monday's road clash against the Sharks, Ed Graney of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Leading the NHL with 35 wins, Fleury missed Sunday's game and his absence will extend. Vegas called up Max Lagace from AHL Chicago, but Malcolm Subban could likely get the starting nod against the Sharks, after starting Sunday's game. Fleury will likely be monitored on a day-to-day basis before Thursday's game against Winnipeg.

Fleury (lower body) is out Sunday against Edmonton and is considered day-to-day.
EDGE Analysis
Leading the NHL with 35 wins, Fleury's absence is a big one for the Golden Knights. The injury also puts his status for Monday's contest in San Jose in question. Max Lagace was recalled from AHL Chicago on Sunday, but Malcolm Subban will likely get the starting nod against the Oilers.

Fleury made 40 saves on 41 shots to win his sixth consecutive game in a 2-1 victory against the Stars on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran goaltender has been absolutely on fire this month. Since Feb. 26, he's won six straight and posted a .973 save percentage during the streak. Fleury is 5-0-0 with a .975 save percentage in March. Fleury leads the league with 35 victories and eight shutouts, but with the hot streak, his other numbers are looking great too. He owns a 2.46 GAA and a .914 save percentage in 59 games this season.
