Jimmy Vesey Signs Two-Year Deal With Geneve-Servette HC

The former NHL winger will take his first professional stint overseas after spending the summer without North American offers.

Overview

  • On August 4, Vesey signed a two-year contract with Geneve-Servette HC in the Swiss National League.
  • The move will mark his first professional play outside North America after six NHL seasons.
  • Vesey entered free agency after suiting up for just 43 games last season, including 10 appearances for Colorado following a March trade.
  • Earlier summer interest from multiple KHL clubs, led by SKA St. Petersburg, did not result in a bid before he chose Switzerland.
  • Facing a lack of NHL offers by late July, the 32-year-old winger prioritized consistent playing opportunities abroad.
