Defenseman Will Butcher, winner of the Hobey Baker Award as the top player in NCAA Division I men's hockey last season, will likely decide which NHL team he will sign with by Sunday, his agent told NHL.com on Thursday.

Butcher's agent, Brian Bartlett, also said there are as many as four teams in the mix for his services, and confirmed that the Buffalo Sabres and Vegas Golden Knights are two of the teams. Butcher has two more visits scheduled this week before returning home to Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, on Saturday.

"I do think he'll likely decide on Sunday," Bartlett said. "He's in Denver now at the pro camp taking place at the University of Denver, so he hasn't been with his family to sit down and talk about things. The hope is we'll sit down once he gets home and make a decision by Sunday because NHL rookie tournaments and camps are coming up pretty quick."
