Abysmal Season, Vegas eyes Dahlin

After finishing 2nd to last in the league this season, Vegas has their eyes on Dahlin. Only the Arizona coyotes finished with a worse record of 22-58-2 for 46 points on the season. They will be the ones giving Vegas a run for Dahlin. However Vegas has a plethora of picks and young talent available to move up in the draft, should they lose out on the lottery.

What was most shocking this season was that the GM Dustin traded only one of his aging players at the deadline. Many rumors had surfaced around players such as Gaborik, Plekanec and Gaunce being the youngest of the rumored players, however only Plekanec was moved. We understand Vegas already has several picks in this years draft, but a few more couldn't have hurt? The trade itself was:
C Tomas Plekanec to Toronto for C Dominic Moore + TOR 6th round pick in 2018

Another disappointment this season was the acquisition of Sam Bennett, many believed he was going to have an immediate impact on the team, but fell drastically short of making a difference with only 30 points. However Shipachyov himself only finished with 18 points on the season, 3 with Vegas and 15 more with Calgary. Still, the future is bright for Bennett and we expect him to be the top center in Vegas next season.

Bobby Ryan broke his thigh back on January 13th, and was held out for the remainder of the season. He still managed to lead the team in goals, and we can only assume he would have finished in the 25-30 goal range. With a contract like his, we only assume he is the candidate of trade bait and he could easily help out any team with cap space trying to add a pure goal scorer.

Here is a list of the top 16 scorers throughout the league:
