I don’t think so. Flower’s the face of the Knights and still an effective 1b


Yeah, but they currently have negative $59K in cap space, with 4 more players (including Stephenson) to sign.

Without COVID, Lehner likely gets $7-8M+ on the open market. Good for both of them to finally give Lehner a permanent home.


No Goalies are getting 8 million dollars preseason anymore. It cannot work out to make a whole team work.

Neither can paying players 10 but teams do it all the time with their star players.

Am I crazy to think they keep Fleury?


in a way you are. It isn't ideal to spend 12 mill on 2 tendys also unless they make moves they are capped out so they can't rn. They don't even need Fleury when Lundqvist and Greiss will hit the market.

Vegas clearly has other moves in the works. They can only go 10% over the cap during the offseason and have to be cap compliant before opening night (whenever that will be.). That' s only 8.5 mil. Free agency starts on Friday, so if they are going to be able to make any significant move (Pietrangelo), then they will be announcing moves to shed cap-space.

They had a window to grab Lehner and had the foresight to do it. Highly unpopular with the fanbase but the results will speak for themselves. Sure Lehner could've gotten more on the market, but he obviously wanted term. Vegas gave him 5-years. Could've seen the writing on this one once he got his custom pads and helmet as most rentals don't do that? lol

So they will shed Engelland, Merrill, and Nosek (UFA's); resign Stephenson & Cousins.

Move Fleury, Stastny and another D-man (McNabb possibly Schmidt depending on how much they have to retain from Fluery's contract).

Aquire a back-up goaltender and make a run at Pietrangelo.

But who knows, I'm just a fan!!

I think they find a way to keep both. Nothing wrong with having a 1 and 1b goalie tandem. Especially those 2 guys.

they don't need Fleury so they will unnecessarily spend 12 mill on them 2. I think it would be smart to buy him out or move him
