Braeden Bowman

November 2025 – Bowman, he quickly ascended from a minor league depth option for the Vegas Golden Knights franchise to a top of the list NHL call up, after getting called up on November 12, 2025 he made his NHL debut the following night versus the New York Islanders, Bowman had 16:25 of TOI with 5:25 power play time and followed that up with his first NHL goal in his second career NHL game versus the St.Louis Blues on November 15, he once again played over 16 minutes (16:08 TOI) and seen 3:33 of power play time.

Going from a fantasy afterthought to an immediate fantasy producer in all formats does not happen often, but if your league mates have been snoozing all week, add Bowman to your fantasy roster. A player playing second-line minutes with power play usage should be rostered immediately and put in your starting lineup until further notice.

If Bowman were to be sent back down after Vegas’ forwards return from injury, in yearly he will head back to your waiver wire, but in dynasty he has quickly become a hold/stash even if he is sent back to the AHL. Mark Henry

September 2025 – Bowman played his first professional season in the American Hockey League during the 2024-25 season with the Vegas Golden Knights AHL affiliate, the Henderson Silver Knights. He earned second-line minutes and power play time, seizing the opportunity and running with it, signing a two-year entry-level contract with the Vegas Golden Knights in the process. He played 69 games and produced 26 points (14 goals and 22 assists). Bowman is unlikely to see NHL playing time in 2025-26, given the Vegas Golden Knights’ existing forward depth. As a result, he does not need to be rostered in any league, serving as organizational depth in the minors. Mark Henry

March 2025 – The Vegas Golden Knights signed Bowman to a two-year, entry-level contract. Mark Henry
