Patrick (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against the Blackhawks on Saturday, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick has been plagued by injuries again this season, having appeared in a mere 25 games this year. When healthy, the center has been decently productive with two goals and five helpers and could challenge for a top-six role once given the all-clear. In the meantime, Jonas Rondbjerg has been called up to fill out the lineup while Michael Amadio returns from COVID-19 protocols.

Patrick (undisclosed) left Thursday's game versus the Predators in the first period, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Patrick was injured, but he logged just 1:37 of ice time over three shifts. The 23-year-old has a long history of head injuries, which is always a concern when he leaves games early. There should be an update on his status prior to Saturday's game versus the Blackhawks.

Patrick notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Tuesday was Patrick's second game back after he missed 11 with an upper-body injury. The oft-injured 23-year-old is up to seven points, 29 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-2 rating through 20 contests. His fantasy value will remain limited as long as he's in a bottom-six role.

Patrick (upper body) will not participate in Tuesday's game against Philadelphia, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick will miss a ninth consecutive contest while dealing with an upper-body injury that he incurred in a 2-0 loss to Colorado on Feb. 16. The 23-year-old has shed his non-contact jersey and returned to full practice indicating he is nearing return, Granger adds.

Patrick (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick will be eligible to return as soon as he's ready. The 23-year-old suffered the injury on a high hit by the Avalanche's Nathan MacKinnon last Wednesday. Patrick remains without a timeline to return, and Jake Leschyshyn was called up to take his roster spot.

Patrick (upper body) will not play Sunday against San Jose, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old has missed the last two games with his upper-body issue. Due to Patrick's history with concussions, he can be considered out indefinitely until more information is available.

Patrick (upper body) will not suit up Friday against the Kings, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick took a high hit Wednesday against the Avalanche and there hasn't been much information regarding his status. His next chance to play will be Sunday against the Sharks. Keegan Kolesar will jump back in the lineup Friday.

Patrick (upper body) left Wednesday's game versus the Avalanche in the first period, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick got hit up high by Nathan MacKinnon, which sent the former crashing into the boards. Patrick didn't come back to the bench at the start of the second period. Given his history with concussions and migraines, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Golden Knights hold him out of the rest of the contest. The 23-year-old should be considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's game versus the Kings. If Patrick has to miss time, Keegan Kolesar would likely enter the lineup.

Patrick notched an assist and added two shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick helped out on Mark Stone's third-period insurance tally. The 23-year-old Patrick has played in a top-line role at even strength in the last two games, though it has yet to provide much of a boost to his offense. The Manitoba native is up to six points, 23 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-4 rating through 16 contests. Patrick will likely return to the bottom six once Chandler Stephenson clears the COVID-19 protocols.
