The goaltender Adin Hill broke the bank with a new deal in the Vegas Golden Knights organization.

Adin Hill has been showing a lot of promise since joining the Golden Knights. After helping the team win the Stanley Cup in 2023, Hill has been offering steady performances in front of the net to help the team stay at the top of the standings.
His talent was even recognized at the 4 Nations Face-Off, when he was chosen to be Team Canada's number two goalie in the tournament.
On Friday morning, the Golden Knights reached a deal with their goaltender Adin Hill for a contract extension.
Darren Dreger confirmed that the goalie agreed on the terms of a six-year deal valued at $6.25 million AAV:
The Golden Knights made the news official with the following press release:
"VEGAS (March 14, 2025) - Vegas Golden Knights General Manager Kelly McCrimmon announced today, March 14, that the team has signed goaltender Adin Hill to a six-year contract extension through the 2030-31 season worth an average annual value of $6,250,000.

Hill, 28, has played in a career-high 39 games this season with Vegas while posting a 2.53 GAA, .906 save percentage, and overall record of 24-11-4.
