Morelli inked a one-year contract with Barys Astana of the KHL on Aug. 21.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli had four hits in 7:31 of ice time against Philadelphia on Nov. 25 in his lone NHL appearance with Vegas in 2024-25. He notched 13 goals and 19 points in 48 regular-season games for AHL Henderson last campaign. He had one assist in his first KHL contest this year.

Morelli was assigned to AHL Henderson on Wednesday, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli played in Monday's 5-4 shootout win over Philadelphia, collecting four hits in 7:31 of ice time in his NHL season debut. Morelli's reassignment to the minors coincides with William Karlsson's (personal) return to Wednesday's lineup against Colorado.

Morelli was recalled from AHL Henderson on Tuesday, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli has five goals and nine points in 13 minor-league appearances this campaign. He accounted for three goals and one assist in nine NHL regular-season outings with Vegas in 2024-25. He will be an option for Wednesday's game against Toronto.

Morelli was placed on waivers Saturday, according to PuckPedia.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli had 13 goals, 29 points and 39 PIM in 56 contests with AHL Henderson in 2023-24. He also contributed three goals and four points in nine regular-season games with the Golden Knights. The 28-year-old is projected to start the campaign in the AHL.

Morelli was sent to the minors Friday, per PuckPedia.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli has played in nine games with the Golden Knights this season, recording three goals and one assist. His move to the minors has made him eligible for the AHL playoffs, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him right back with the big club ahead of Saturday's game versus Detroit.

Morelli scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli has three goals and an assist over eight NHL appearances. The winger got Vegas on the board late in the first period Monday. Morelli was able to stick on the roster with Jack Eichel (knee) returning Monday, but it's unclear if he'll stay in the NHL once William Carrier (upper body), Pavel Dorofeyev (upper body) and Brett Howden (upper body) are all healthy again. Morelli has been confined to a fourth-line role when in the lineup.

Morelli scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli has two goals, one assist, seven shots on net, 13 hits and four blocked shots over his first five NHL contests. The 28-year-old forward has played on the Golden Knights' fourth line lately with injuries piling up among the team's forwards. Morelli can probably be ignored in most fantasy formats, as his time with the big club will likely end once a couple of the injured forwards are able to return.

Morelli scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Monday's 4-0 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli scored on a power play late in the first period and also helped out on Keegan Kolesar's insurance marker in the second. It was a dream debut for Morelli, who is a bit of a late bloomer at 28 years old. He's averaged roughly a point every two games at the AHL level, so his scoring contributions in the NHL are likely to be modest, especially if he remains in a bottom-six role.

Morelli was called up from AHL Henderson on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Morelli has 23 points in 44 contests for the Silver Knights this season. This is the 28-year-old's first NHL call-up, though it's unclear if he'll get any playing time.
