Vegas Golden Knights’ Next Moves Could Shake Up the NHL—Is Jack Eichel’s Future Already Sealed?

There’s a certain tension hovering around the Vegas Golden Knights these days—a mix of hope and nagging questions about whether this crew has the juice to finally take home the Stanley Cup. Locked in with nearly $86 million committed for next season, Vegas faces a tricky puzzle: a core that’s experienced yet clearly aging, dotted with hefty contracts loaded with no-movement clauses from the likes of Mark Stone, Alex Pietrangelo, Tomas Hertl, and of course, Jack Eichel.
