He only played in 10 of Colorado\u2019s final 21 regular-season games and did not dress in their first-round playoff loss to the Stars.<\/p>\n<p>Vesey finished the season with a 5-3\u20138 scoring line in 43 games of action between the Rangers and Avs, his fewest NHL appearances in a single season since beginning his career in 2016. The 6\u20192\u2032, 203-lb winger also averaged a career-low 10:39 per game with only 12 blocks and 32 hits. His possession impacts were similarly pedestrian, as they have been for most of his nine NHL seasons.<\/p>\n<p>Understandably, Vesey was not offered an extension by the Avs and has had a hard time finding a deal nearly a month into free agency. That has him \u201cseriously considering offers\u201d from the KHL as compared to trying to look for a minor-league contract to continue playing in North America.<\/p>\n<p>SKA St. Petersburg has been the most aggressive in pursuing the veteran of over 600 NHL games, Tuboltseva reports.
