Golden Knights Rumors: 3 Forwards Linked To Vegas

Monday, February 26, 2024 , , ,

The Las Vegas Golden Knights are actively seeking solutions to mitigate the potential absence of their captain, Mark Stone, for the remainder of the regular season.

In their quest to bolster the forward lineup, they have been linked to three notable players: Mikael Granlund, Anthony Mantha, and Frank Vatrano.

Granlund's reputation for versatility and scoring prowess positions him as a prime candidate to provide immediate offensive support to the Golden Knights.

The 32-year-old is having a great season, while currently playing for the league-worst San Jose Sharks, scoring seven goals and 32 total points across 43 games played this season.

Similarly, Anthony Mantha's combination of size and scoring ability presents an enticing prospect, potentially infusing the team's forward corps with a dynamic edge.

The 29-year-old has currently tied his best points total since the 2019-20 season, amassing 18 goals and 29 total points over 52 games played so far this season with the Washington Capitals.

Meanwhile, Frank Vatrano emerges as another intriguing option for the Golden Knights.

The 29-year-old Vatrano is in the midst of the best season of his nine-year NHL career, scoring 26 goals and 45 total points across 58 games so far this season with the Anaheim Ducks.

With his exceptional speed and knack for finding the back of the net, Vatrano could inject a significant boost of energy into the team's offensive efforts.

However, as the Golden Knights navigate the trade market, they must carefully weigh their options, considering factors such as available cap space and the potential asking prices for these coveted forwards. Photo Credit: John E. Sokolowski-USA TODAY Sports
