1. Vegas Golden Knights Sign Schwindt, Rondbjerg & Lavoie | VGK Forward Depth Bolstered for 2025-26
The Vegas Golden Knights have secured forward depth for the 2025-26 season by signing Cole Schwindt, Jonas Rondbjerg, and Raphael Lavoie to one-year contracts.
Cole Schwindt had a breakout season with Vegas in 2024-25, playing a career-high 42 NHL games and recording his first NHL goal against Vancouver. The 24-year-old right-shooting forward from Kitchener, Ontario was claimed off waivers from Calgary and made his playoff debut against Edmonton.
Jonas Rondbjerg, 26, continues his tenure with the Golden Knights where he’s played all 76 of his NHL games. The Danish international represented his country at the 2025 IIHF World Championship and helped Denmark qualify for the 2026 Winter Olympics.
Raphael Lavoie, 24, joined Vegas via waivers from Edmonton last October. The 6’4″ right-shooting forward led the Henderson Silver Knights with 17 goals last season. Previously, he was a consistent scoring threat for the Bakersfield Condors, leading the team in goals for two consecutive seasons.
These signings provide the Golden Knights with valuable forward depth as they look to build on their success following their 2023 Stanley Cup championship.
