Knight heading to Detroit in PWHL sign-and-trade with Las Vegas

The Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL) saw a significant move as five-time U.S. Olympian Hilary Knight was traded to Detroit in a sign-and-trade deal with Las Vegas, following the lifting of the league's trade freeze. This move highlights the league's active roster adjustments as it continues to grow, especially with Detroit and Las Vegas, both expansion teams, making strategic player swaps. Knight's experience and skill set will likely bolster the Red Wings' roster, while the Vegas expansion team likely gains assets to build its squad.
