The NHL offseason is officially just a few weeks away, and the rumors are already swirling in each and every direction.
Last week, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman said that the Philadelphia Flyers have been linked to Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Nic Hague.
The 26-year-old defenseman has spent his entire career in Vegas and is due a new contract as a restricted free agent. With the Golden Knights looking to potentially add some pieces (Mitch Marner?) this offseason, and five NHL defensemen signed past next season, trading Hague rather than re-signing him may be the way to go for Vegas.
