Golden Knights Rumors: Ducks Forward On Team's Radar


The Vegas Golden Knights have been browsing the trade market for a forward, and it is very easy to understand why. Both Mark Stone and Jack Eichel are sidelined, and they need help on offense because of it. Due to this, they are now one of the top clubs to pay attention to as we get closer to the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline.

With the Golden Knights needing some serious help when it comes to their forward, they have been connected to many of them as of late. Yet, a new one is reportedly on their radar, as the Golden Knights are looking at Anaheim Ducks forward Adam Henrique.

Henrique will, without a doubt, be traded before the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline is here. This is because the Ducks are in the middle of a rebuilding stage, and the veteran forward is on an expiring deal. With that, he is having a very good season, so the Ducks are going to take advantage of that and him being the best center available on the trade market. 

Henrique would be a big addition to the Golden Knights' middle six, as he is still a quality point producer at this juncture of his career. Along with that, he can play both down the middle and on the wing, so they would have many options for him. Furthermore, he would work on both their power play and penalty kill, as he is a very good two-way forward.

We will need to wait and see if the Golden Knights can land Henrique before the trade deadline passes from here.
