Jonathan Marchessault Awaits Contract Talks with Vegas Golden Knights
Despite a stellar season, the veteran forward has yet to hear from the team about a new deal as free agency looms.
- Marchessault, coming off a career-high 42 goals, has not been contacted by the team regarding a contract extension.
- The Golden Knights have until June 30 to negotiate before Marchessault becomes an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
- General Manager Kelly McCrimmon expressed a desire to re-sign Marchessault but has delayed negotiations.
- Marchessault has been a key player for Vegas since its inaugural season, winning the Conn Smythe Trophy last year.
- The team's salary cap constraints and recent acquisitions suggest a potential shift in their roster strategy.
