The Vegas Golden Knights pulled the trigger on a trade that sent Erik Haula to the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for Roy and a conditional fifth round pick in 2021.
That conditional pick, by the way, will remain a fifth round selection if Haula remains on the Canes roster beyond 2019-20, if Carolina trade Haula for either a player or multiple picks then Vegas will receive a pick in rounds 1-5, or they will be left with no pick if Haula walks next year (Information per Pierre LeBrun).
Getting back to the main topic of the day, though, and as sad as it was to see Haula go, this was a trade that ticked a lot of boxes for the Golden Knights.
