What happened: The Vegas Golden Knights assigned 2026 first-round draft pick Juho Piiparinen to the London Knights of the OHL for the 2026-27 season. He will report to his junior club immediately.

Why it matters: The reassignment provides the prospect an opportunity to continue his development with ample playing time. Piiparinen addressed the media at training camp earlier in the week. Vegas recently reduced its overall training camp roster to 28 players following a preseason victory over the Sharks.

What to watch: The Golden Knights will finalize their opening night roster as the preseason concludes.
