The Vegas Golden Knights officially unveiled their expansion draft roster on Wednesday night at the NHL Awards Show in Las Vegas.

Defenceman Griffin Reinhart was selected by the Golden Knights off of the Edmonton Oilers list of unprotected players.

The Oilers chose to protect seven forwards, three defenceman, and one goaltender. Reinhart, forward Jujhar Khiara, and goaltender Laurent Brossoit were among the players available for the Golden Knights to choose from.

The Oilers acquired Reinhart from the New York Islanders at the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. Since then, Reinhart played in just 29 games for the Oilers, registering one assist.
