The Golden Knights announced multiple trades during the NHL Expansion Draft on Wednesday.
And general manager George McPhee might not be finished.
With teams willing to wheel and deal to prevent the Knights from drafting key unprotected players, McPhee netted a bushel of draft picks and players for the first-year franchise.
The biggest deal involved the New York Islanders, who dealt forward Mikhail Grabovski, defenseman Jake Bischoff, a 2017 first-round pick and a 2019 second-rounder to the Knights.
They also nabbed first-round picks from the Winnipeg Jets and New York Islanders, giving the Knights three of the top 15 picks in the entry draft that takes place Friday and Saturday in Chicago.
