Spends most of the time on gambling rather than player managementLol clown management

Why? So they can carry three goalies into the season, watch Adin get injured again and then basically pay him 2 million for 6 games and then lose him for nothing?Agree. A complete incompetent. A 4th is worthless. Should have told Vegas to get lost for less than a 2nd.
That was market value for Hill. The demand for him wasn't there.Can’t believe Vegas paid significantly less for Hill from the Sharks than the Avs did for Georgiev from the Rangers. Even excluding value, he traded Hill below market value to his rival in dire need of an NHL caliber goalie
They got nothing. Maybe they get more at the trade deadline if they keep him and he does a decent job this season.Why? So they can carry three goalies into the season, watch Adin get injured again and then basically pay him 2 million for 6 games and then lose him for nothing?
Vegas needed a goalie. There is no immediate need to trade Hill unless they are hoping to get more for Reimer later on, No one is giving Vegas a goalie. Montreal would want a 1st for Allen. Even if someone else is willing to give Vegas a goalie for a 4th who cares. 4th's are no big loss.That was market value for Hill. The demand for him wasn't there.

Just cleaning up after the mess the last guy leftSJ doing Vegas a favor and barely getting market value
Pretty much every single one of Grier’s moves has been questionable so far
He wasn’t going to play this season. Not unless either Reimer or Kahkonen got hurt.They got nothing. Maybe they get more at the trade deadline if they keep him and he does a decent job this season.
No I started watching hockey in the mid 90s. What's your point and what are you referencing in my post
But like...where does Vegas keep getting this cap space to add players?
You're a Arizona Coyotes fan and you hope that a Golden Knights goalie is successful? What?AZ fan here
Adin Hill is bad. He's tall and extremely athletic, but his fundamental angles are off. Before Hill have literally never seen a goalie make the NHL (or even a good college program) without understanding basic angles / positioning, yet here is Adin Hill with stats that are somehow within band.
Obvi I hope I am wrong / Hill does well
Lehner and Weber are on LTIR. They have tons of LTIR room.But like...where does Vegas keep getting this cap space to add players?
They need a backup. Lehner is pretty much out for the year and Brossoit is injured too.Weird trade. Thompson is better than Hill.

Hutchinson is not an NHL goalie. And Vegas obviously isn't too confident in Brossoit. They wanted some goaltending insurance and got it.For how long ? Hill is not cheap at $2,175M . Couldn't Vegas just rolled with Hutchinson ( who they have signed ) or one of their signed prospects as backup for Thompson until Brossoit is ready ? Now they have to waive somebody who is owed more than what waivers provide in cap relief or send Thompson to the AHL once Brossoit is ready ( or make another move )

Great. Now Vegas has three goalies who can't do the job.
