If the Golden Knights are looking for a few more players to fill out their roster, they’ll have an avenue in which to do so.
Beginning Wednesday, college players who did not sign an entry-level contract with the NHL team that drafted them will be free agents and free to sign with any team.
Currently, the Knights have 42 players signed and under contract. The maximum allowed is 50.
“If there’s a college free agent we see something in that is available we’re going to reach out to that player and pursue it,”Knights general manager George McPhee said Monday.
