US EditionPredators to Trade for Golden Knights Defenseman Nicolas Hague
DAVIDSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE, JUN 30 – The Predators acquired Nicolas Hague and a conditional 2027 draft pick while signing Hague to a four-year, $22 million extension to improve their defense and salary cap, GM Barry Trotz said.
- On Sunday, TSN’s Darren Dreger reported that the Nashville Predators traded defenseman Jeremy Lauzon and center Colton Sissons to the Vegas Golden Knights for defenseman Nicolas Hague.
- Ahead of free agency, Vegas traded Hague’s rights due to salary cap limits, enabling Nashville to target his signing; the move benefits both teams' roster strategies.
- The trade involves Nashville acquiring 6-foot-6 defenseman Hague, who scored 12 points last season, while Vegas gains veteran Sissons and Lauzon, with Hague’s four-year, $5.5M extension.
- The Predators strengthen their lineup with Hague's signing, while Vegas frees cap space and adds depth by trading Sissons and Lauzon.
- The Predators' long-term strategy aims to rebuild by developing Hague into a key defenseman, following two playoff absences in three years.
