If Las Vegas picks a combination of players that have on ice chemistry, they could have very good first season. Tricky part is staying under the Cap though.

Quick turnaround and tomorrow will be NHL Entry draft, could be a lot of wheeling & dealing happening. Next up is July 1 free agency

Clearly Vancouver was not willing give up draft picks to keep Luca as a Canuck.

Not surprised. Bottom up rebuild.
