The Vegas Golden Knights made headlines by acquiring defenseman Rasmus Andersson from the Calgary Flames, a move confirmed by multiple reports. The trade, which sends Zach Whitecloud, two draft picks, and a prospect to Calgary, was graded an A- by Danny Webster due to Andersson's impactful presence on the ice, having recorded 30 points in 48 games this season.

This acquisition comes during a period of resurgence for the Golden Knights, who have scored a total of 36 goals during their current seven-game winning streak, contrasting sharply with their previous struggles where they managed only 28 goals across eight losses in nine games.
