According to several reports including Peter Baugh and Scott Powers at The Athletic, the Chicago Blackhawks are signing Stanley Cup Champion, Jack Johnson to a one-year, $950K contract for the upcoming season.
In 1,024 career NHL regular-season games with the Kings, Columbus Blue Jackets, Pittsburgh Penguins, New York Rangers, and Avalanche, Johnson has scored 72 goals and 312 points.
With deals for players like Johnson, Colin Blackwell, Max Domi, Andreas Athanasiou, and Alex Stalock, the team has acquired quite a few veteran names that will fill out the roster but not move the needle very much.
