The Vegas Golden Knights have made a strategic move by reassigning defenseman Jaycob Megna to the Henderson Silver Knights, their AHL affiliate. This decision aims to provide Megna with the opportunity to gain more playing time and further develop his skills after a limited role in the NHL. Megna, who has shown promise, joined the Golden Knights with the hope of solidifying a position on the roster, but competition for spots has been fierce.

Throughout the preseason, Megna's performances had fluctuated, leading to tough decisions for the coaching staff. The Golden Knights have a deep defensive lineup, and placing Megna in the AHL allows him to gain confidence while contributing significantly to the Silver Knights. Meanwhile, the team's focus remains on optimizing their lineup for the upcoming season, ensuring they have a balanced and competitive team on the ice.

By making this move, the Golden Knights are not only investing in Megna's development but are also prioritizing a robust performance in the NHL. Fans will be eager to see how he adapts and what this means for his future with the franchise. As the season progresses, monitoring Megna's growth in the AHL could provide insights into his potential impact on the Golden Knights later this year.
