The Vegas Golden Knights are in a terrific spot in the Pacific Division despite coming off a loss to the Chicago Blackhawks last night. The warm welcome back that the Vegas fan base gave to Marc-Andre Fleury was something to behold. Fleury was a big part of the Knights success, but there is more to the story.

The Vegas Golden Knights decided to trade away Marc-Andre Fleury to the Blackhawks this past off-season. The decision that the Vegas organization made to trade Fleury and keep Lehner set a lot of Vegas Golden Knight fans irate. Losing the beloved goalie was hard for Knight fans to get over, but they have found a way to accept it and move on. However, things could be repeating themselves but this time for the better.

The Vegas Golden Knights have always been a trigger happy team, but that has caused for a lot of problems. After trading for Jack Eichel, the Vegas Golden Knights have found themselves once again, in a terrible spot. However, the solution could be as simple as trading a single player away.

The Vegas Golden Knights have always been known as a team to fear. Since coming into the league, the Knights have found a way to pursue and acquire every available star in the league. Well, okay- that was obviously an exaggeration. Nonetheless, the Knights have traded away multiple first-round draft selections in order to obtain players like Jack Eichel, Mark Stone, Nolan Patrick, and Max Pacioretty. However, there is a solution that I don’t think many people have considered.
