The Golden Knights will appear on national TV 12 times this season, with most of those appearances on ESPN.
Golden Knights first-year coach Bruce Cassidy has an idea of what he wants his lines to look like, but he plans to move players around in training camp.
Adin Hill said he and fellow Golden Knights goaltender Logan Thompson have known each other since he was 10. The Knights traded for Hill on Monday to provide depth.
The Golden Knights acquired goalie Adin Hill from the San Jose Sharks. He joins Logan Thompson and Laurent Brossoit in net, with Robin Lehner expected to miss the season.
The Golden Knights aren’t just adding a one-of-a-kind player in veteran Phil Kessel. They also are getting a unique personality and a player who is popular with teammates.
Golden Knights general manager Kelly McCrimmon said Logan Thompson and Laurent Brossoit will be the team’s goaltenders in the wake of Robin Lehner’s hip injury.
Veteran right wing Phil Kessel, who signed with the Golden Knights on Wednesday, is ready to play on a competitive team again after three seasons with the Arizona Coyotes.
Veteran right wing Phil Kessel is joining the Golden Knights on a one-year, $1.5 million contract, the team announced Wednesday.
The Golden Knights look far different in net than they did only two seasons ago. How they adjust — they need to replace Robin Lehner — could determine their fate.
The right side of the Golden Knights’ blue line is the more flashy one, but it is also one of the team’s strongest position groups.
The Golden Knights still need to re-sign one player on their blue line, but otherwise their depth chart looks set a month before training camp starts.
Mark Stone and Reilly Smith are two of the better two-way forwards in the NHL, and their absences last season played a part in the Golden Knights’ failure to make the playoffs.
The Golden Knights have never been deeper at center than they are entering this training camp. That likely means a few guys will end up moving to the wing.
The Golden Knights haven’t had to worry much about production from left wing the past four years. But this season they have a hole in the top six after trading Max Pacioretty.
