Golden Knights sign Phil Kessel


The Vegas Golden Knights signed unrestricted free-agent forward Phil Kessel to a one-year contract worth $1.5 million on Wednesday.

The veteran winger scored 52 points over 82 games in his third full season with the Arizona Coyotes in 2021-22 and led the team with 44 helpers.

The Coyotes struggled to produce last campaign and scored a league-worst 206 goals, but Kessel factored in with an assist on 21% of those tallies.
