The March 8th trade deadline is only a few days away, and teams are starting to make their final decisions. One of the teams looking to change their lineup is the Vegas Golden Knights, who have just acquired a highly-sought after forward.
Vegas Acquires Anthony Mantha
The Golden Knights have just signed on Anthony Mantha, a star forward who was playing with the Capitals.
"The Vegas Golden Knights have acquired Anthony Mantha from Washington."
While this likely takes them out of the running for star player Jake Guentzel, Mantha has had a great season so far and may be enough for the team to make it out of 11th in the league.
"Here we go! Anthony Mantha has been traded from the Washington Capitals to the Vegas Golden Knights per @DarrenDreger. Another situation where Vegas uses cap space thanks to LTIR. Mantha has been very good this season."
Anthony Mantha is clearly a quality player and a worthy pick for Vegas. With the trade deadline this Friday, it will certainly be interesting to see how this story further develops.
