Vegas Golden Knights 2025-26 NHL Betting Lines
In the eyes of many observers, the Vegas Golden Knights won the 2025 offseason with the acquisition of Mitchell Marner from the Toronto Maple Leafs. That would be fitting for a franchise that has been all-in for the Stanley Cup championship since opening its doors for business in 2017. The strong offseason comes on the heels of disappointment in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, where the Golden Knights were exposed for their lack of depth against the Edmonton Oilers. Edmonton sent Vegas home after a 4-1 second-round win. Vegas will receive plenty of future market love for the upcoming season, which could be another banner campaign.

Off-Season Moves for 2025-26
In: Mitch Marner, Colton Sissons, Jeremy Lauzon
Out: Nicolas Roy, Victor Olofsson, Alex Pietrangelo, Nicolas Hague, Ilya Samsonov
No team added a better player this summer than Vegas, snagging a franchise star in Mitch Marner at a fair price. Marner completely changes Vegas’ forward dynamic, adding an elite point producer with serious defensive chops at the top of the lineup. Adding Marner to a team that already features Jack Eichel, Mark Stone, and William Karlsson is a serious luxury to Vegas’ two-way ability.
The Golden Knights are going to be a force next season thanks to one of the league’s most stacked forward groups. Losing Nicolas Roy and Victor Olofsson isn’t a big deal when the team has so much depth already, and they’re adding a top 15 forward to the mix on top of that.
Adding Marner wasn’t the only news of the summer, though. Vegas’ standing took a hit when it was revealed that Alex Pietrangelo’s playing days were likely over. While Pietrangelo may not be the player he once was, likely due to injury, he was still a very capable top-four option that brought stability to the back end. It’s a hole that will be difficult to fill, and while Kaedan Korczak is an extremely interesting internal option, Vegas’ defense corps is still obviously worse without Pietrangelo around. He’s a big loss that dampens the effect of adding a superstar.
Vegas was strategic in re-signing Brandon Saad and Reilly Smith to one-year contracts, thereby securing middle-six forward depth. Moving on from the Hague allowed them to add another depth forward in Sissons and another NHL defenseman in Lauzon.
Then came the summer's biggest move: packaging Roy in the sign-and-trade deal for Marner, adding one of the NHL's top stars to a team that remains among the West's top contenders. As always, Kelly McCrimmon and the Knights' front office found a way to make a blockbuster happen.
The announcement that Alex Pietrangelo will sit out next season -- and possibly never play again -- to recover from femur reconstruction surgery creates questions about what Vegas will do on the back end, given the absence left by its No. 1 defenseman.
Key Players
Jack Eichel, the second overall pick after Connor McDavid in the 2015 NHL Draft, is the marquee man on the VGK. Last year, Eichel had 27 goals, 66 assists, 93 points, and a +30.
Mitchell Marner arrives in Sin City after a bittersweet career with his hometown team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. Marner was the 4th overall pick of the 2015 NHL Draft by Toronto. Marner is a 3-time All-Star with 221 career goals, 520 career assists, and 741 career points. Last year, he scored 27 goals, recorded 75 assists, and finished with 102 points, all while maintaining a +14 rating. However, it was playoff production that damaged Marner’s brand with the fans. In 70 playoff games he scored only 13 goals with 50 assists and 63 points. Marner became worn down from being the scapegoat in his hometown and wanted out. In Vegas, he was treated as a hero upon arrival. There is the hope that Marner will have better postseason production in Sin City, where he won’t be under a microscope as he was in Toronto.
Goaltenders
G Adin Hill was the hero of the Stanley Cup championship run with a .915 save percentage and 2.50 goals against average. His save percentage in the playoffs was .932. In 2024, Hill had a .909 save percentage. This past season, Hill has had a 2.47 goals against average and a .906 save percentage. His record is 32-13-5 with four shutouts.
Head Coach
Head coach Bruce Cassidy also served in that role for the Washington Capitals and Boston Bruins. He led the Bruins to the 2019 Stanley Cup Final, where Boston lost in seven games to the St. Louis Blues. Cassidy had a career record at the start of the season of 437-228-9-79, including 145-73-26 with Vegas and a Stanley Cup.

Vegas Golden Knights History
Born in 2017 as an expansion team, the Vegas Golden Knights immediately made history by making it to the 2018 Stanley Cup Final. No first-year expansion team in North American major league history had ever accomplished such a feat since the 1968 St. Louis Blues. The Blues had the advantage of playing in a division comprised of fellow expansion teams.
As the first major league sports franchise in Las Vegas, the Golden Knights faced a unique challenge. Las Vegas was shattered by the Mandalay Bay mass shooting at an outdoor concert a few days before their first-ever game. The organization initiated community outreach to establish an immediate connection.
The Golden Knights have sold out almost every game they have ever played at T-Mobile Arena. Visiting teams and media members rave about the incredible enthusiasm and atmosphere at Vegas home games.
Vegas does everything in a first-class manner. Its broadcasting team is of network-level quality. Its team on the ice is a perennial Stanley Cup contender. Its management is openly doing everything in its power to win the Stanley Cup. Any other sport would be fortunate to have such a great expansion franchise.
