William Karlsson signs 2-year, $13.5M contract extension with Golden Knights
William Karlsson, one of three remaining original Golden Knights players known as the Misfits, signed a two-year, $13.5 million contract extension with Vegas. The deal takes the 33-year-old center through the 2028-29 season. He and defensemen Brayden McNabb and Shea Theodore have been in the organization for its entire 10-year history. Karlsson is one of the NHL’s top two-way players because of his ability to finish at the goal and defend the entire ice.
He is second in team history with 165 goals, 403 points, 382 takeaways and a plus-128 rating.
