It’s not that Jimmy Vesey is unhappy living and playing hockey in Switzerland. But the former New York Rangers forward doesn’t exactly sound thrilled with how his NHL career seemingly ended either.

Vesey signed with Geneve-Servette of the Swiss National League in early August, and has six points (three goals, three assists) in seven games. He did so only after failing to receive a firm free-agent offer from any of the 32 teams in the NHL.

That surprised the nine-year NHL veteran, even after an admittedly down season with the Rangers and Colorado Avalanche in 2024-25, when he totaled eight points (five goals, three assists) in 43 games.
