The Vegas Golden Knights traded Nicolas Hague to the Nashville Predators, possibly to clear salary-cap space for a potential acquisition of Mitch Marner. In exchange for Hague, they received defenseman Jeremy Lauzon and center Colton Sissons. Hague, 26, has been with the Golden Knights since being drafted in 2017 and recently signed a four-year contract worth $5.5 million annually with the Predators. This trade also seeks to address Nashville's defensive struggles, as their previous defense allowed 274 goals last season, one of the worst in their division.
"The Vegas Golden Knights traded Nicolas Hague to the Nashville Predators, possibly making room to pursue Mitch Marner, while gaining defenseman Lauzon and center Sissons in return."
"Hague, who signed a four-year, $5.5 million deal with Nashville, played exclusively for the Golden Knights before this trade and had his best offensive season last year."
