LAS VEGAS — Czech forward Tomas Hyka is the third player to sign with the expansion Vegas Golden Knights.
The Golden Knights announced the one-year, entry-level deal Thursday.
The 24-year-old Hyka was a sixth-round pick by Los Angeles in 2012, but he never signed with the Kings. After playing junior hockey in Quebec, he has spent the past three seasons in the top Czech league, scoring 78 points for Mlada Boleslav.
