Vegas Golden Knights first ever draft pick Cody Glass is set to make his return to the lineup Friday night, against the Ducks in Anaheim.
Glass hasn't played with the team since their 5-0 loss to the Rangers on December 8th.
Glass left the game after an elbow to the head from Brendan Lemieux, and immediately went into concussion protocol.

Glass returned to practice earlier in the week, wearing a non contact jersey. But it was confirmed Friday afternoon by VGK Head Coach Gerard Gallant that Glass would return to the lineup for Friday's game.
