BREAKING: Golden Knights Sign Brayden McNabb To Three Year Extension

The Vegas Golden Knights have signed Brayden McNabb to a three-year extension, carrying a $3.65M AAV.

McNabb has been with the Golden Knights since its inaugural season, recording 518 games, 22 goals and 111 points. The 33-year-old is a defensive defenseman but set a career-high in points during the 2023-24 campaign with 26.

According to the Golden Knights’ press release, “the defenseman is the all-time franchise leader in games played (518), hits (1,256), blocked shots (1,144) and time on ice (10,205:21) since being drafted by Vegas in the 2017 NHL Expansion Draft. His 1,144 blocked shots lead all skaters in the NHL since the 2017-18 season. McNabb’s +104 rating as a Golden Knight ranks second in the team’s history, behind only William Karlsson (+114). Over the last two regular seasons, McNabb played in each of the team’s 82 games, and has appeared in 194 consecutive games in the regular season. McNabb helped Vegas lift the Stanley Cup in 2023 for the first time in his career and has appeared in 88 postseason games since 2018 which ranks fifth among NHL defensemen.”

The 6’4, 215 lbs, left-handed defenseman was drafted in the third round by the Buffalo Sabres in the 2009 NHL draft. He played two seasons with the Sabres before joining the Los Angeles Kings for the next three. McNabb has been as reliable as they come for the Golden Knights and the three-year extension is a testament to that.
