It was clear that with the Las Vegas Golden Knights submitting their roster at 10 a.m. ET and the team not being announced until 8 p.m. ET that there would be plenty of rumors and leaks. What wasn’t expected was full out reports that players have been selected.
It’s official. Oscar Lindberg will skate for Las Vegas and not the New York Rangers next season.
Can confirm that Oscar Lindberg will be going to Vegas in the expansion draft.

The big debate for GM George McPhee was to select Oscar Lindberg or Antti Raanta.
