The Vegas Golden Knights are contemplating significant roster changes as they seek to enhance their chances in the upcoming season. Speculation surrounds a potential trade involving Mitch Marner, with discussions rumored to include a three-way deal that could have seen him join Vegas. However, talks reportedly stalled due to complexities with Carolina. To accommodate new players, Vegas may need to move William Karlsson, whose $5.9 million cap hit looms for the next two seasons.

Moreover, ongoing negotiations regarding Jack Eichel's contract renewal add to the urgency for the franchise. As they aim for another Stanley Cup run, the Golden Knights are expected to remain active in the trade market, potentially looking at various options to mix things up on their roster. The team’s leadership is determined to avoid past disappointments and ensure they remain competitive.
