TSN’s Pierre LeBrun has reported that the Vegas Golden Knights and Karlsson have agreed terms on an eight-year contract extension, which should be finalised later this week.
And Bob McKenzie of TSN has added that the average annual value of the contract will be a shade under $6 million.
Not only does that deal give Karlsson the length he so desired, it is also a manageable number for the Vegas front office who will now get to work on clearing cap space.
Hearing that William Karlsson’s extension, once signed this week, will be 8-year max term, which was really important to him.
