With multiple unrestricted free agents hitting the market and a need to adjust their goaltending, the Vegas Golden Knights face challenges amidst a tight cap situation. The team added depth with Samsonov and Schmid but lost significant offensive talent, leaving little cap room to fill the void.

Despite a seemingly underwhelming off-season, Vegas remains active in acquiring players like Holtz and Olofsson. Internal prospects like Brisson and Morelli will also get a chance to step up, while exploring external options for bottom-six depth.
