Visor-Free Veterans Face Uncertain Futures | NHL News
Description
Jamie Benn just re-signed with the Dallas Stars for another year, keeping him among the NHL’s rare visor-free veterans alongside Ryan OReilly, Zach Bogosian, and Ryan Reaves. Benn, 36, put up 15 goals and 36 points in 60 games while battling injuries—including a collapsed lung and nose trauma—and even briefly wore a visor before reverting to his signature style. OReilly, 34, and Bogosian, 35, also re-signed—O’Reilly with Nashville for 74 points in 81 games, Bogosian with Minnesota on a $1.25M cap hit. The big question now? Reaves, 39, who led the Sharks in hits but is unsigned. With San Jose signing Mason Marchment and adding toughness via Darnell Nurse and Jacob Trouba, Reaves’ return seems unlikely. If he doesn’t find a new home, the NHL’s visor-free roster could shrink dramatically next season.
