Jimmy Vesey's camp have broken their silence since news of his intention not to sign with the Nashville Predators was made public.

The camp representing the Harvard University star - including advisors Peter Fish and Pete Donatelli - according to TSN's Bob McKenzie released a statement Wednesday explaining the process, largely in response to the numerous allegations by the club that drafted him in the third round in 2012.

Vesey claims that the Predators were informed that the possibility of not signing with the team was probable, and they were told to conduct their business prior to the trade deadline accordingly.

The release also goes on to say that money was never a factor in the decision, admitting that had it been an issue, the 22-year-old would have signed a contract with the team following his third season of college hockey.

The 2015 Hobey Baker nominee finished his final year at Harvard with 24 goals and 46 points in 33 games. He will become a free agent on Aug. 15.
