Golden Knights' plan of attack
As Gary Bettman likes to say, "Vegas Golden Knights, you're on the clock."
These days, Golden Knights general manager George McPhee, 58, is the most popular man in the NHL.
From his team's war room in the Knights' training facility in Summerlin, Nevada -- about a 15-minute drive west of the Las Vegas Strip -- McPhee will guide a hockey ops team that includes assistant general manager Kelly McCrimmon, director of player development Wil Nichol, senior vice president Murray Craven and head coach Gerard Gallant in the selection of the first NHL expansion team since 2000, when the Columbus Blue Jackets and Minnesota Wild entered the league.
