Artur Cholach

Defensively, the Vegas Golden Knights have plenty of names to fill their six-man group. Names like Shea Theodore, Noah Hanifin, and Alex Pietrangelo have created a logjam for the upcoming season. With this logjam, the Golden Knights have numerous options waiting in the wings. That includes Ben Hutton and Kaeden Korczak, who await an opportunity to join the team's starting lineup.

However, there could be room for one more in the future with Artur Cholach coming up. The Ukrainian blue-liner is a sizable body, standing at 6'4" and weighing 201 lbs. He has a left-handed shot, which would add another dimension to the Golden Knights. Not only that, but it could replace Theodore's shot in the lineup, giving Vegas continued balance.

If he can boost his offensive production, that could be a healthy sign of his development. Last season, he scored four goals and 11 assists in 54 games for the Sioux Falls Stampede. He has shown his offensive capabilities before, notching eight assists in five games with Ukraine during the U20 World Junior Championships (D1B) in 2021-22.
