Ryan Reaves never used to worry about the trade deadline. He kept it out of sight, out of mind.
“And then I got traded twice,” the Golden Knights winger said. “I think it’s always in the back of your mind because hockey is still a business, so anything is possible. You never really know what is going on upstairs.”
The NHL trade deadline is less than two weeks away and general manager George McPhee has been actively working the phone lines to gauge the market, according to sources around the league.
The Knights have surplus draft picks to move and plenty of salary cap space with which to work.
