Nolan Patrick a signé un contrat de 2 ans d'une valeur de 2 400 000 $ avec les Golden Knights de Vegas, le 19 sept. 2021. Le contrat comporte un cap hit de 1 200 000 $.
Good for both team and player. If he bounces back, Vegas gets a 2C for dirt cheap. If he gets injured again (god forbid, this kid deserves all the best), he has a massive chunk of change coming in for two years.
Not sure why they offered more than $1M based on how rough the road has been for Nolan thus far. I've never been a fan of his style of play, but I really hope he reaches his potential at some point.
What a great contract for Vegas. Even if Patrick is league minimum this season, at $750K, the second year would be max $1.65MM. Both those could be huge under payments for what he’s capable of.
Last year was a terrible year for Patrick, but last year was a terrible year for a lot of teams / players, so I think we can give him a mulligan there. If so, then Vegas got a real steal with this contract.
