Vegas Golden Knights Recall Seven

June 2, 2021 at 12:52 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Vegas Golden Knights, set to take on the Colorado Avalanche in game two of their second-round series tonight, have recalled seven players to the taxi squad. Carl Dahlstrom, Jack Dugan, Cody Glass, Kaedan Korczak, Jonas Rondbjerg, Jimmy Schuldt, and Logan Thompson have all been brought up. Glass and Thompson were on the ice with the rest of the team at practice, while the others are likely just serving as “Black Aces” for the team.

Jesse Granger of The Athletic tweets that both Mattias Janmark and Robin Lehner are game-time decisions for tonight’s match, explaining why the other two are practicing. Of course, the team will also be without Ryan Reaves for the next two thanks to a suspension for his antics in game one. Glass, 22, has played in just a single playoff game thus far and saw fewer than 13 minutes of ice time in it. The sixth-overall pick from 2017 has yet to really establish himself as a regular at the NHL level, with just 22 points in 66 career games.

It’s some of the other names that will draw interest if even just as examples of how well the Golden Knights staff has built up the depth of the organization. Players like Dugan, a fifth-round pick that scored 33 points in his first AHL season or Korczak, a second-rounder that looked excellent in his first year of professional hockey are going to challenge for playing time in the NHL at some point in the near future.

Jack Dugan Signs Entry-Level Contract

July 16, 2020 at 1:47 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Vegas Golden Knights have signed a top prospect, inking Jack Dugan to a two-year entry-level contract. The deal will not burn his first year this summer and instead starts with the 2020-21 season. He will not be eligible for the Golden Knights’ playoff run this season.

Dugan, 22, will forego his last two years at Providence College and join the professional ranks after an outstanding college career. The fifth-round pick recorded 91 points in 75 NCAA games, including leading the entire nation in scoring this season with 52. While sometimes huge offensive numbers like that come from players too small to succeed at the NHL level, Dugan is also a 6’2″ forward that uses his frame and reach effectively to protect the puck before finding an open teammate.

Getting him to join the organization now means the Golden Knights will have full control over the development of the Hobey Baker finalist, though that may include some time in the minor leagues. There is a lot to be excited about when it comes to Dugan’s future, but like any player making the jump from college there is no guarantee he can find that kind of sustained success at the NHL level right away.

Still, the flat salary cap will make for some tough decisions in Vegas just like everywhere else around the league. The team already has over $75MM committed to 17 roster players for 2020-21, meaning there isn’t a lot left over for those last few spots. A player like Dugan may be able to force his way onto the roster because of his relative cost, though David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that the deal will be worth the entry-level maximum ($925K) and will include Schedule A performance bonuses.

CapFriendly clarifies that the deal, which carries a $1.5625MM AAV with bonuses, breaks down as follows:

2020-21: $925K salary including signing bonus, $425K in Class A performance bonuses
2021-22: $925K salary including signing bonus, $850K in Class A performance bonuses

Jack Dugan Agrees To Terms With Vegas Golden Knights

May 11, 2020 at 2:05 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Vegas Golden Knights have convinced top college prospect Jack Dugan to join the organization, though it’s not clear exactly when he will sign on the dotted line. The forward recently finished his sophomore season at Providence College where he was named a Hobey Baker top-ten finalist, and will likely be following the precedent set by fellow collegiate star Scott Perunovich. The Golden Knights have not announced a contract, likely meaning Dugan will start his deal with the 2019-20 season should it resume, or 2020-21 if this year is canceled entirely.

Vegas GM Kelly McCrimmon was obviously excited about bringing Dugan aboard:

We are pleased to have the opportunity to continue to play a key role in the development of Jack Dugan as both a hockey player and as a young man within our organization. Jack took significant steps in his growth over the past two seasons as one of the best all-around players in college hockey, and has proven that he is ready for the next challenge in his young career.

Dugan, 22, led the entire NCAA in scoring this season with 52 points in 34 games but didn’t end up as a Hat Trick finalist for the Hobey Baker–which Perunovich eventually won. Many believed his omission was a mistake given how dominant he was offensively, but he won’t get a chance to avenge that snub with a junior or senior campaign.

Drafted in the fifth round back in 2017, there’s little more that Dugan could have accomplished over the last three years. He first went to the USHL and finished third in league scoring (while recording over 100 penalty minutes) before stepping right into the college ranks as a playmaking dynamo. The 6’2″ winger has gotten stronger and stronger since his draft year and now is a legitimate power forward who looks ready for the grind of professional hockey while still possessing his strong skating ability and puck skills.

While there may not be a first-line ceiling on Dugan, this is a player that looks ready to contribute to the Golden Knights NHL squad right away. If the 2019-20 season resumes with the playoffs, you could see him in the lineup on opening night.
