Reilly Smith didn’t think about going anywhere else despite being an unrestricted free agent
Smith’s three-year deal with Vegas, which he reportedly verbally agreed to in late June, was confirmed Wednesday on the first day of free agency. “I feel like I’ve put my heart and soul into this organization,” he said on Thursday. “I’m very fortunate that they noticed that and they’re giving me the opportunity to come back here and chase the goal we started five years ago. ... There was no doubt in my mind that this is where I wanted to play. You know, pretty much finish out my career here.”
