Capitals sign Alex Chiasson to 1-year contract

Geoff Burke / USA Today Sports

Alex Chiasson signed a one-year, $660,000 contract with the Washington Capitals following a successful training camp tryout.

The deal is one-way in nature.

The winger registered 12 goals (11 at even strength) and 12 assists in 81 games with the Calgary Flames last season.

Chiasson was drafted 38th overall by Dallas in 2009, and has totaled 106 points (50 goals, 56 assists) in 320 career NHL games with the Stars, Ottawa Senators, and Flames.

As a reminder, Chiasson was included in a package sent to the Senators in the Jason Spezza trade back in 2014.

He'll now be counted on to provide scoring depth for a Capitals team looking to keep its Stanley Cup window wide open.
