The Golden Knights made their pitch to free-agent defenseman Will Butcher on Tuesday.
Now it’s a waiting game for Knights general manager George McPhee, as the Hobey Baker Award winner decides where he wants to begin his NHL career.
“I would expect it would be done within a week or so,” McPhee said. “We’ve already discussed what our team has to offer and our organization has to offer him. But now a player has to take a look at facilities and understand the city a little bit to make that final decision.”
Butcher, 22, became an unrestricted free agent Aug.
