In what has rapidly become an offseason saga, there is still no concrete news on whether or not Nikita Gusev will return to the Vegas Golden Knights for 2019-20. He’s currently a restricted free agent and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel.
Here’s what we know so far; according to our good friend Jesse Granger at The Athletic, Gusev and his camp wants a two-year deal worth $4 million per year. However, the Golden Knights are only willing to give a two-year deal carrying an average annual value of $2 million.
