Last summer, Vegas traded away Marc-Andre Fleury to the Chicago Blackhawks, handing the starting role fully to Lehner. Now Vegas has no options.
However, Golden Knights' General Manager, Kelly McCrimmon might have found his replacement. This move would not only be a replacement, but could be a upgrade on Lehner.
The only issue is Price's $10,500,000 annual salary. Both the Golden Knights and Canadiens are both in a cap crunch, but the injury to Lehner allows the Golden Knights to exceed the cap by nearly $12,000,000.
