Huckleberry Posted June 20, 2017 Report Posted June 20, 2017 That counts for the cap ceiling but from my reading of expansion rules they have to take X cap or more specifically in the draft. The Vegas Golden Knights reportedly have a deal in place with the New York Islanders “in which the Knights will receive the Islanders’ first-round draft pick (No. 15 overall) in Friday’s NHL Entry draft along with injured forward Mikhail Grabovski. In exchange, the Knights will take veteran forward Nikolai Kulemin in the Expansion Draft on Wednesday.” this and the clarkson deal should take care of that easy and gives them 3 1st rounders already.

DarthEbriate Posted June 20, 2017 Report Posted June 20, 2017 TSN has this neat page where we get to pick the vegas team! too cool... http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/assemble-the-knights/draft-simulator have fun!Of course some of these players are not available and no doubt there is deals in place but nevertheless pick who you wish... My all-ex-Sabres Knights-in-heavy-armor squad wasn't a valid team. Not enough cost-controlled contracts in 2017. :angel: Quote
