Hilary Knight Heads to Detroit

Hilary Knight’s legendary career just got a Vegas twist—officially signing a one-year deal with the new PWHL team there, but this is really a stepping stone to Detroit. Part of a slick sign-and-trade already in the works, Knight’s move nets Las Vegas a first-round draft pick, pending league approval in June. She’ll earn at least $100K and, crucially, get closer to home in Chicago. After last year’s Seattle pivot (to be near Idaho), Knight’s back on the ice—fresh off Olympic gold, where she scored the tying goal in the final. Though she said the Olympics were her last, she’s clearly not done. Injury sidelined her last season, but her stats prove she’s still a top scorer. This move? Pure business—and personal.
