Golden Knights’ George McPhee says status quo on Vadim Shipachyov

BOSTON — Golden Knights general manager George McPhee, who was in Boston for Thursday’s game, said there has been no change in the Vadim Shipachyov situation. He also said the doctors, not he, will decide when Marc-Andre Fleury will return to action.

And as far as the Knights trading for a goaltender, he indicated that’s probably not going to happen.

“Nothing’s changed,” McPhee said when asked about Shipachyov, who has been suspended without pay since going AWOL from the Chicago Wolves last Saturday.

McPhee said when everything gets sorted out, he will explain what transpired. But Shipachyov has not been put on unconditional waivers nor has he been terminated by the team.
