Huh. Interesting use of Stones LTIR.

Yeah, didn't see this coming.... not a typical VGK move, but it does give the VGK some size and additional depth (not that they needed much more).

Not necessarily.

 

Depends on how much cap goes the other way.

He's a skilled player that any team wants - but has that playing style where he doesn't look like he's trying very hard.

Doubt it. A Vegas player is probably ready to go on LTIR for cap space. Lol.

Yep, not really a move that makes me any more worried to meet them in round 2

Likely low asset acquisition costs due to cap. They couldn't afford assets for Guentzel.

Yeah, I know. Just really don't like the idea of Vegas getting stronger. Not that I think we can really afford to give up three seats for Guentzel. Would rather see him go to an Eastern team if Vancouver can't afford him,  or a bottom feeder

Vegas may regret this trade down the line. Mantha has all the tools, but seems to misplace them. 

He has been a force this season. Huge body as well.

Not sure what bothers me more... the fact that VGK probably got stronger from this trade, or the fact that the announcement here came from Donald Trump. 

 

The latter
