Las Vegas is quite the destination, but apparently not for former Blackhawks.
Marcus Kruger, who the Vegas Golden Knights acquired on Sunday, was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday morning. The expansion team got the Hurricanes’ fifth-round selection in the 2018 NHL Draft for the former Blackhawks center.
A few hours after Kruger was traded to Vegas, SportsNet’s John Shannon tweeted, “On Kruger trade, someone should tell Marcus not to unpack. Team has yet to decide if he stays or gets dealt.” And here we are.
Kruger’s the second Blackhawks player the Knights have immediately flipped to the Hurricanes.
