Room for Expansion: Predicting the Vegas Golden Knights' Roster in 2017
The NHL Expansion Draft is coming fast. Where do the Golden Knights stand, and who may be playing in the desert come next season?

Buffalo Sabres

For what's available on the Buffalo Sabres' roster, Johan Larsson seems like a positive attribute to the needs of the Golden Knights. A low-cost, low-risk forward with a potential upside. Larsson isn't flashy, but he has good hockey sense, per his draft profile, which is good for the league's 31st franchise. Since 2014, Larsson has put up average numbers, making him a fit for a bottom six role in Las Vegas.
