Ladies and gentlemen, it's draft season. That means the countless NHL Draft rumors and speculation will be crowding the airwaves. You'll hear about who the New York Islanders will pick with the first overall pick and where Matthew Schaefer will go.
But what about the Vegas Golden Knights? What does Kelly McCrimmon have cooked up this year? Will he make a move and find a first-round draft pick that he'll eventually trade away?
All that remains to be seen. However, you can't count out the general manager and the Golden Knights front office. They're known to shock the NHL world with a big move or two.
Anyways, here's where the team stands for the upcoming draft. I will give you fair warning, though. The draft picks this season are drastically different from the year before.
How many picks do the Golden Knights have in the 2025 NHL Draft?
That's a good question, dear reader. That would be six picks this season for the boys in gold. They don't have a first-round pick, nor do they have a seventh-round pick. However, they do have two sixth-round picks to work with, along with one pick in the other rounds.
Of course, anything can change at a moment's notice. You might have Nicolas Hague traded for a draft pick or two. That also goes for other players like Nicolas Roy. However, Kelly McCrimmon and company can get a drink and relax while the first day unfolds.
After all, you never know when McCrimmon's magic will strike. He could pull off a big move that gets him the necessary picks for a future move. That's especially true when your team's in the running for a big name (you know who I'm talking about).
