Vegas Golden Knights

Am I the only one enjoying seeing Vegas look like an expansion team?

I'm more focused on how the Islanders don't look like an expansion team.

I was so hoping the Islanders would trade for this guy. He is such a good 2 way defenseman.

Shea Theodore's 7-yr contract is a flat $5.2 M salary per season, no fluctuation. No signing bonuses. Includes a 5-team no-trade clause in the last 2 yrs of the contract

Golden Knights Sign Forward Max Pacioretty To 4-Year Contract Extension

I hope this sets the bar for guys like Eberle and Lee. I would sign BOTH up for that term and amount right now.

I think the 4 year term is the key. If Lee or Eberle want more years then the AAV goes down, or should.

Lee I would. Eberle I'd go just about what he is making now, which isn't far off.

I don’t cover hockey, but this statement from a Vegas player just suspended for PEDs is fascinating given what these statements usually say. https://t.co/vz0CSyIRZf

Hmmmm.

Golden Knights defenseman Nate Schmidt suspended 20 games without pay for violating the NHL's performance-enhancing substances policy.

This new contract kicks in after next season when he will be 35. That seems risky to me.

Didn't realize he was that old. Man the older I get the quicker the time flies! However with what happened this year I have to think this deal is fair for both sides.

Why not sign there. The fans seems to love him and from what I'm hearing once you get off the strip it can be a pretty nice place to live. This contract makes sense for both the team and player.

I have visited there a bunch - and it is a very nice lifestyle - assuming the heat of summer - you can deal with. Areas like Summerlin and Henderson are vibrant places to live and its an economy there which is booming.

I wouldn't mind living there because I like riding in temperatures that hover in the 100's. Or for Canadians and the rest of the world in the 40's
