Vegas Golden Knights: Lehner trade highlights the will to win this year

After being quiet for most of the day, the Vegas Golden Knights sprung into life in the final minutes of the Deadline to send seismic waves throughout the NHL.

In the market for a puck-moving defenseman, the Knights decided to head down a different path in order to bolster their roster.

Reading and analysing the market well, the front office opted to pull the trigger on a stunning trade for elite goalie Robin Lehner.

The Golden Knights sent a package containing Malcolm Subban, prospect defenseman Slava Demin and a 2020 Second-Round pick to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for Lehner.
