McCrimmon was asked how the Knights planned on handling their goaltending situation and he gave the following answer:
Vegas GM Kelly McCrimmon said the @GoldenKnights will go into the season with a goalie tandem of Laurent Brossoit and Logan Thompson, with Robin Lehner out for 2022-23.
With rumors swirling that the Knights would look at add a goaltender this is a a surprising claim. After firing multiple head coaches it will definitely be McCrimmon on the chopping block if the Knights miss the playoffs.
