BREAKING: Anthony Mantha Traded to Vegas Golden Knights
In a surprising move, Anthony Mantha has found a new home with the reigning Stanley Cup champions, the Vegas Golden Knights, following his acquisition from the Washington Capitals.
After a challenging 2022-23 season, Mantha was determined to rediscover his form, especially after admitting to struggling since his arrival in Washington, D.C. Although he faced initial setbacks, including being a healthy scratch in the second game of the season, Mantha soon found his rhythm.
Anthony Mantha Finds New Home with Vegas
In recent games, Mantha has emerged as one of the Capitals' top performers. He reached a significant milestone by scoring his 20th goal of the season against the Arizona Coyotes, marking his first time hitting the 20-goal mark since the pandemic-shortened 2019-20 season. This resurgence has been attributed to Mantha's dedicated off-season training regimen, which focused on refining his skills and addressing mental health challenges with the guidance of a mental coach.
Mantha's impressive performance not only underscores his value to the Capitals but also positions him as a sought-after asset for teams looking to strengthen their roster for the playoffs. With his arrival in Vegas, the Golden Knights add depth and scoring prowess to their lineup, potentially bolstering their chances for another championship run.
Full trade to come.
