The Vegas Golden Knights have signed forward Alex Tuch to a seven-year contract extension worth $33.25 million.
Tuch had 15 goals and 37 points in 75 games last year after coming over in an expansion draft deal that ensured the Golden Knights would select Erik Haula from the Minnesota Wild.
The Wild drafted Tuch 18th overall in 2014.
He was scheduled to become a restricted free agent at season’s end, but his new deal should keep him in Vegas threads through the 2025-26 season at a $4.75-million cap hit.
