The Chicago Blackhawks have agreed to terms with their top selection from last summer's draft, inking Alex DeBrincat to a three-year entry-level contract, the team announced Monday.
DeBrincat, chosen in the second round, 39th overall, leads the Ontario Hockey League with 17 goals, and has 35 points in 14 games this season with the Erie Otters.
He's been a prolific scorer throughout his major junior career, having racked up 205 points in the two seasons that preceded his draft eligibility.
DeBrincat was a member of the U.S. world junior roster last winter.
