McPhee: Golden Knights not trading for goalie
Face to face with a crisis in the crease, Vegas Golden Knights general manager George McPhee isn't willing to make a move out of desperation.
The expansion Knights have lost three goaltenders to injury, not even one full month into their inaugural season. Marc-Andre Fleury has a concussion, while Malcolm Subban and Oscar Dansk have each suffered lower-body injuries, forcing little-known rookie Maxime Lagace into a starting role.
Still, McPhee said Thursday he isn't willing to broker a deal for additional help, according Steve Carp of The Las Vegas Review-Journal.
"We'll ride it out with who we have," he said.
Despite the slew of injuries, Vegas' goaltending has actually been a strong point so far, as the Golden Knights rank eighth in the NHL with a team save percentage of .929 at 5-on-5.
