Summary
The Vegas Golden Knights kick off the new season with a fresh face in head coach Ryan Craig, a longtime org veteran who’s risen from assistant to AHL leader. After a thrilling Stanley Cup Finals run last year, they’ve reshaped their roster: big defensive upgrades with Parker Wotherspoon and Rasmus Andersson (signed to a massive 7-year, $59.5M deal), plus Jérémy Lauzon (6 years, $24M) and offensive additions like Victor Olofsson and Dylan Coghlan — even bringing in their own first-round pick, Juho Piiparinen. But they’ve also shipped out key scorers Pavel Dorofeyev (traded to NY Rangers for picks) and Keegan Kolesar, along with backup goalie Akira Schmid. Despite the losses, their Pacific Division isn’t loaded, giving them a real shot at home-ice advantage — but can these moves turn them back into Finals contenders?
