Now it appears another member of the team might be finding his way out of Sin City. According to Dan Rosen the Golden Knights are so satisfied with the goaltending they've received from Logan Thompson and Admin Hill, that they're willing to move on from Lehner.
The goalie situation up until 2020, was fairly stable as Flower was their number-one goalie, then Vegas acquired Lehner in a quick flip from the Chicago Blackhawks, via the Toronto Maple Leafs, with salary retained.
Since then, they shipped Flower to Chicago for an ECHL player, brought in former Jets goaltender Laurent Brossoit, utilized Logan Thompson as their third-string goalie, and recently brought in Adin Hill.
It's looking like fan favorite Robin Lehner will possibly be next on the chopping block. Lehner reportedly had multiple issues with the franchise before he was injured last season. Clearing Lehner's $5,000,000 could be huge for the Golden Knights as well.
