Golden Knights sign Phil Kessel to 1-year, $1.5M US deal
The Vegas Golden Knights bolstered their forward depth by signing veteran Phil Kessel to a one-year, $1.5 million US deal Wednesday.
Kessel has appeared in 982 consecutive NHL games, the longest active streak, and is seven away from tying Keith Yandle's record of 989.
Last season, Kessel had a career-worst eight goals along with 44 assists. He's a goal away from becoming the 13th American-born player to score 400 NHL goals.
