‘The Vesey Sweepstakes was expected to be a major one come August, with the Sabres among several teams known to be interested. Vesey’s father was hired last year as a part-time scout by Toronto and his brother, Nolan, was a 2014 draft pick of the Leafs. There has been plenty of chatter of interest in Vesey by the Boston Bruins but Jimmy Vesey Sr. has said he prefer his son not have to deal with the pressure of playing for the hometown team.’
