After months of speculation and a boatload of guesswork from fans and media alike, the Vegas Golden Knights have accepted their fate and sent Gusev to New Jersey for a third round pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and a second round selection in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft.
And the Devils moved quickly to sign the Russian stud to a two-year contract with an average annual value of $4,500,000. On a side note, New Jersey look set to be a dominant force in the NHL in 2019-20 following the moves they have made this offseason.
