Vegas Golden Knights - Fantasy News
Schmidt was assessed a 20-game ban in early September for violating the NHL's Performance Enhancing Substances policy. He was denied upon appealing the suspension, so the 27-year-old rearguard headed to Vienna, where he was still able to practice. Jesse Granger of The Athletic wrote about how much fun Schmidt had overseas -- spoiler alert: it includes tales of the defenseman experiencing an Austrian circus and consuming a bacon-wrapped deer heart -- but now he'll shift his attention back to the Golden Knights. Schmidt led all Vegas blueliners with 36 points (five goals, 31 assists) in 76 regular-season games last season and helped the team advance to the Stanley Cup Finals against his former Capitals team. However, the Golden Knights have picked up only 17 points for a seventh-place standing in the Pacific Division this season.
