Top Free Agent Jack Roslovic Makes Agent Change After Turning Down Offer From Edmonton Oilers
Jack Roslovic, who still doesn't have a contract as we inch closer to the new year, has reportedly changed agents after rejecting an offer from the Edmonton Oilers.
One of the top remaining unsigned UFAs has decided to make a change in his representation.
Jack Roslovic, who played last year with the Carolina Hurricanes, has changed agents after reportedly rejecting a 1 year offer from the Edmonton Oilers per analyst Zach Laing.
It's unknown what the offer was, but LeBrun reported that Roslovic is looking for more than one year on his deal, something the Oilers' offer likely wasn't. Still, it prompted the Columbus, Ohio native to change his agents, going from Claude Lemieux to Justin Duberman.
Maybe it shouldn't be that much of a surprise that Roslovic has struggled to find a deal with term. Evolving Hockey projected the most likely contract for him to sign in free agency was a one-year, $1.39-million contract, giving a 30 percent chance of it happening.
