Whitecloud has battled an upper-body injury that has prevented him from playing this season but will finally make his debut on Friday against the San Jose Sharks. Last season, Whitecloud played 59 games with the Golden Knights, tallying 12 points (5G / 7A) and a +10 plus/minus rating.

Whitecloud was hurt after receiving a hit from Colorado's Kurtis MacDermid in Vegas' preseason game vs. the Avalanche and is considered week-to-week after undergoing successful surgery on an area on the upper body. The 26-year-old was expected to be a big part of Vegas' defensive unit this season after collecting five goals, seven assists, 41 PIMs, and a +10 plus/minus through 59 games in 2022-23.

Whitecloud left the Golden Knights' previous contest after just 14:57 TOI due to a lower-body injury and will not play Tuesday vs. Seattle. The 26-year-old is considered day-to-day for the time being and has five goals, seven assists, 64 SOG, 41 PIMs and a +10 plus/minus through 59 games played prior to the injury.


Whitecloud has not played since Dec. 11th due to a lower-body injury but will be a game-time decision Tuesday as Vegas takes on Nashville. Prior to his injury, the 26-year-old had one goal, five assists, 26 SOG and 23 PIMs through 30 games played.


Whitecloud left Sunday's game vs. Boston after just 8:45 due to an undisclosed injury and was placed on the injured reserve Monday. The 26-year-old has one goal, five assists and 26 SOG through 30 games prior to being hurt.

Whitecloud missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to play Saturday afternoon vs. the Blackhawks. Whitecloud and Alec Martinez will both be back in, providing a massive boost to the Golden Knights' bllueline on Saturday.

Whitecloud missed the last six games but is expected to replace Dylan Coghlan (flu) in the lineup on Friday. Whitecloud has scored six goals with six assists (12 points) in 31 games this season.

Whitecloud missed the Golden Knights' final game before the All-Star break and will miss at least the first two games after. For now, he's been ruled out for the two-game road trip, so monitor his status as the Golden Knights return home for next Wednesday's game vs. the Avalanche.
