Inks one-year contract
Smith signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Golden Knights on Wednesday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Smith's new deal includes a no-trade clause, which was probably of particular importance in this case because Vegas traded Smith in June 2023, though the Golden Knights then reacquired him during the 2024-25 campaign. He had 13 goals and 40 points in 79 regular-season appearances between the Rangers and Vegas in 2024-25. The 34-year-old, who is taking a pay cut compared to his expiring three-year, $15 million contract, should provide solid value relative to his new cap hit while serving primarily on the third line.

For the second straight summer, Smith found himself on the trade block, this time heading to the Rangers in a swap for a pair of draft picks. The two-way winger never seemed to fit in with the Penguins, notching just 13 goals in 76 regular-season contests, tying his lowest total in a full season previously set back in 2014-15 when he was with the Bruins. The 33-year-old Ontario native will lace up his skates for his sixth NHL franchise when he dons the blue shirt and should be a lock for a top-six role, if not the first-line assignment with Chris Kreider and Mika Zinbaejad. Even with that role, Smith has reached the 20-goal threshold just once in his last four seasons, so fantasy players may want to temper expectations.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Close to re-signing?
Smith is slated to re-sign with Vegas, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Smith is coming off a three-year, $15 million contract. After playing for Vegas from 2017-18 through 2022-23, Smith spent 2023-24 with Pittsburgh and started the 2024-25 campaign with the Rangers before being dealt back to Vegas. He finished that regular season with 13 goals and 40 points in 79 appearances between the Rangers and Golden Knights. The 34-year-old is likely to serve primarily on the third line next season if he remains with Vegas.
