Vegas to introduce GM on Wednesday, expected to be George McPhee

Las Vegas' NHL team doesn't have a name, but it appears to have a general manager.

Bill Foley, the owner of the recently awarded club, will reveal the GM at a press conference at T-Mobile Arena on Wednesday afternoon.

TSN's Bob McKenzie merely speculated Tuesday that he'd put his money on former Washington Capitals GM George McPhee getting the job, a guess fellow TSN insider Darren Dreger called a "safe bet."

Others in hockey circles have echoed the heavy hitters:

Just spoke with a very reliable source in the NHL who said he has been told by four people that Las Vegas will hire George McPhee as GM.

Foley said Monday that he'd narrowed the search down to two candidates, and he'd hoped to have an announcement "in a few days."

The league confirmed plans to expand to Las Vegas for the 2017-18 season at the NHL Awards in the city last month.
