Radim Vrbata's days as a free agent could be numbered.
The veteran of over 930 NHL contests could be nearing a contract with one of four teams, according to his agent Rich Evans.
"We have been discussing the structure of a contract with four teams and hope to come to an agreement shortly," Evans said, according to Craig Morgan of Arizona Sports.
After an outstanding first season with the Vancouver Canucks in 2014-15 that saw him lead the club with 31 goals and come third in scoring with 63 points in 79 games, Vrbata drastically tailed off, managing just 13 goals and 27 points over 63 contests last season.
The 35-year-old is coming off a two-year deal with the Canucks that paid him $5 million per season, but can likely expect a smaller paycheck this time around.
