Boston
Because that's where he really wants to go. He was born in Boston. He went to Harvard. It is his home town.
So boys and girls its August and a little light on hockey news so I thought we could play a little game. Which team does Vesey sign with and perhaps more importantly why ?
If you get the signing right I will send some rep love your way (hopefully others will as well)
I am going to go with the NYR
Why ?
They signed Hayes
They have McDonagh, Stepan, Kreider all on the club
NYR has the cap space to make the offer as well thanks to the Brassard deal
so what say you ?
Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.

Boston, he loves it there and has had nothing but good things to say about the team. He grew up a Bruins fan from what I've read so he would be fulfilling a lifelong dream
Without me, it's only "aweso".
I would be surprised if he signed somewhere other than Boston. 6mill in space, and your competing for minutes vs Beleskey, Hayes, Pasternak, and Randell. No way he’s not a top 6 in their lineup. Plus he then gets to play with Krejci or Bergeron (or Backes in the worse situation).

Nashville. I hear he likes it there and they'd really love to have him
Boston. Nothing he has done/said indicates anywhere else.

I hear Chicago and Toronto are the other 2 possibilities.
My guess is Chicago.... Lots of chatter there, but tbh it could be any team

I think it would be hilarious if he signed with the Preds. “Now that you have Subban I wanna be here!”

Leafs... Boston has the home town pull but I can see how that Leafs team appeals to some young guys
Experience is the teacher of all things.

I agree with Doug, Boston for the same reasons, home town, roots.... bloody roots. it will be a north east team as he's said that's where he wants to play. But I can't see it turning out any other way.
My runner up, is the Leafs - I think as a secondary option seeing the prospects coming up with Vesey he could see himself jumping into the middle of this team and rising with them.
but it's still the Bruins.

Boston.
Its where he went to school, he is familiar with the city... and he is good friends with Krug, and who doesn't want to play with a good friend.
The pick is Boston.
But playing with Kane/Toews/Panarin for a couple years and maybe winning a cup would sound enticing to me.
