Veteran winger Reilly Smith has rejoined the Vegas Golden Knights after being acquired in a trade with the New York Rangers. In the deal, Vegas gave up forward prospect Brendan Brisson and a third-round draft pick. Smith ranks fifth on the Golden Knights' all-time scoring list, with 286 points (124 goals, 162 assists) in 399 games. However, he has struggled to produce at the same level since leaving town in 2023. This season, Smith recorded only 10 goals and 29 points in 58 games with the Rangers. The 33-year-old may land a top-six job in Vegas, which would elevate his fantasy value.

New York Rangers right wing Reilly Smith (roster management) will not be in the lineup on Sunday against the Nashville Predators. He is a candidate to be moved ahead of next week's trade deadline, and the Rangers are protecting their asset by keeping Smith off the ice. Smith is a pending unrestricted free agent and should draw plenty of interest from other teams, having registered 29 points (10 goals, 19 assists) in 58 games this season. The veteran winger is also a proven playoff performer, with 26 goals and 79 points in 106 career postseason games.

Pittsburgh Penguins winger Reilly Smith notched three points as the team defeated Columbus 5-3 on Tuesday. Smith had two assists, one on the power play, and wrapped up the scoring in the middle of the third frame. The 32-year-old celebrated his fifth multi-point outing of the campaign. It's been a bumpy ride for Smith with the Penguins, but he has started to pick up form again. A run of two goals and eight assists in 10 games has boosted Smith's points tally for the season to 29. He's had 11 goals and 18 assists in 54 appearances.

Pittsburgh Penguins winger Reilly Smith (upper body) will return from a six-game absence on Tuesday against Winnipeg. The veteran will make his 41st appearance of the campaign, looking to add to eight goals and 12 assists. Smith hasn't been consistent and enters Tuesday's action with a six-game scoreless streak. However, with him skating on the second line with Evgeni Malkin, there's always a chance Smith breaks out. He is also set for duty on the first power-play unit on Tuesday, which boosts his fantasy appeal even more.
