The reveal came on the eve of the NHL awards and the expansion draft, which will see the Golden Knights select one player from each of the league’s 30 other teams and put a minimum of 20 players under contract to form its inaugural roster.

The team must have 14 forwards, nine defensemen and three goalies.
