Round 1 of the NHL Draft begins tonight and fans are excited to see who the Vegas Golden Knights will pick to grow their roster for the future. With 9 draft picks in the first 5 rounds, the Knights can bring in a lot of talent. We don’t know which players McPhee and McCrimmon are looking at, but they’ve done well in the past two years drafting talent like Cody Glass, Nick Suzuki, Erik Brannstrom, and Nicolas Hague. With a first round draft pick again (no 1st round pick in 2018), you can expect to see another star join the ranks… and hey, maybe it will be a goalie like Spencer Knight (fitting) or Hunter Jones.
