The Vegas Golden Knights have traded defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk and a seventh round pick to the Carolina Hurricanes for a 2nd round pick.
The 25-year old van Riemsdyk was selected by Vegas in the expansion draft last night from the Chicago Blackhawks.
Thoughts from the media …
E.J. Hradek: “Seems like this is setting up another move (dealing one of their D for a C?)”
Steve Zipay: “Another young D to blueline-heavy Carolina. Could increase possibility of previously speculated Faulk-to-NYR?”
Chip Alexander: “A former Blackhawks player joining the Canes? When has that happened?”
Chip Alexander: “Trevor van Riemsdyk played with Brett Pesce at New Hampshire.”
