It was an emotional night Friday for Vegas Golden Knights star Mitch Marner. Marner was returning to Toronto, to play against his old club the Maple Leafs.
Rasmus Andersson made his debut with the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday, helping them to a 6-3 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena. After spending 10 seasons with the Calgary Flames, the 29-year-old defenseman was quick to praise his new team after being traded to the strip.

There's more to hockey than scoring goals and stopping pucks. For some players, putting up points came second to their main task: angering their opponents.
Mitch Marner’s first night back in Toronto came with a split soundtrack. The Scotiabank Arena crowd cheered, then booed, as the hometown winger skated out in a Golden Knights sweater for the first time Friday and Vegas skated off with a 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.

If things had gone according to plan for Mitch Marner and the Toronto Maple Leafs, he would have been one of the most popular players in the history of the franchise. He could have been, anyway. Maybe he even should have been.
The years-long drama that was Marner’s tenure in Toronto, rife with contractual disputes and playoff disappointments, left a bitter taste in Leafs fans' mouths.

After being acquired from the Flames in last weekend’s blockbuster, defenseman Rasmus Andersson will make his Golden Knights debut tonight against the Maple Leafs, the team announced.
The Golden Knights started late, then spent the night trying to claw back. Boston’s early damage held up in a 4-3 Bruins win Thursday at TD Garden after Vegas cut a 4-0 hole to one on third-period goals from Jack Eichel, Tomas Hertl and Pavel Dorofeyev.

As the Vegas Golden Knights push toward another Stanley Cup run, the picture is clear: this roster is solid and one of the deepest in the NHL. But it is not complete.
Following the trade acquisition of Rasmus Andersson, fans are once again looking at the Vegas Golden Knights and thinking they get everyone and have an unfair advantage over most other NHL teams.
The Calgary Flames have gotten to work when it comes to selling ahead of the March 6 trade deadline. Such was always expected to be the case with this team heading into the season, and their play through the first half made that decision all the easier for general manager (GM) Craig Conroy.
The Golden Knights have added some extra defensive depth in advance of their game tonight against Philadelphia. The team announced (Twitter link) that they’ve recalled Jaycob Megna from AHL Henderson. To make room on the roster, newly acquired defenseman Rasmus Andersson has been moved to non-roster status.
The scoreboard didn’t reflect it early, but the game told the truth by the end. The Vegas Golden Knights absorbed an early Nashville punch, tilted the ice with pressure and pace, and then blew the doors off T-Mobile Arena with a five-goal third period to bury the Predators 7-2 on Saturday night.
Dylan Coghlan is no stranger to finding himself in transactions this season as he has been frequently shuffled between Vegas and AHL Henderson. That move is once again being made as the Golden Knights announced (Twitter link) that the defenseman has been brought up from the Silver Knights.
