CHICAGO — It started in a big meeting room in Summerlin and ended with a plane ride home from Chicago.
In four days, the Golden Knights went from three to 37 players, then to 48 after two were traded for draft picks. It pushed the limits of general manager George McPhee and his operations staff, and took fans on a wild ride as they learned the names of players who will wear the steel gray, black, gold and red home sweater.
And with free agency looming Saturday, the Knights are in a prime position with their present roster and future players.
