Fans accuse the Golden Knights of cheating by using the LTIR loophole

The Vegas Golden Knights have been a hot topic since they placed Mark Stone on the LTIR and recently they activated Tomas Hertl off the LTIR upsetting fans.

It is no secret that the NHL has a loophole with the LTIR. Three of the past four Stanley Cups have been won by teams exploiting the loophole in some manner.

Recently, the Vegas Golden Knights have been accused of exploiting the loophole with their trade deadline acquisition, Tomas Hertl. They have just activated Hertl off the LTIR and placed forward William Carrier on the LTIR.





This led to a flurry of reactions from fans, most of which were negative.









Nonetheless, the Golden Knights will be gearing up for a potentially deep playoff run and if the loophole is there, they will make their efforts known to exploit it.
