The Québécois forward, who is 6"5" and 240 pounds, has scored a total of 44 points this season( 23 G, 21 A) and spent the majority of the year with the Washington Capitals, concluding 2023-2024 with the Vegas Golden Knights.

He was sent to the Golden Knights for assets in return for a 2nd round pick in the 2024 Draft and 4th Round pick in the 2026 Draft.

«Here's what we know so far: Forwards Michael Amadio, William Carrier and Anthony Mantha will not be returning to Las Vegas. All three are aware and plan to test the free agent market on July 1.

Defenseman Alec Martinez no longer seems to have a place on the blue line; he will be 37 at the end of July and he is said to be weighing his options.» -David Pagnotta
