NHL Trade Deadline: Vegas Golden Knights have no choice but to overpay for Martinez

The 2020 NHL Trade Deadline is on Monday but a bevy of deals went down on Tuesday, and another significant trade could happen today with the Vegas Golden Knights on the cusp of acquiring LA Kings defenseman Alec Martinez.

It was reported by Bob McKenzie of TSN on Tuesday that the Knights are close to trading for Martinez, with the expected asking price from the Kings a pair of second-round picks.

Now, the Golden Knights do boast two second-round picks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and a further three in 2021, so they do have significant capital at their disposal.
