The Chicago Blackhawks have agreed to terms with forward Carl Soderberg on a one-year, $1-million deal, the club announced Saturday.
Soderberg, who was an unrestricted free agent, was arguably the best center available.
The 35-year-old posted 17 goals and 18 assists over 70 games with the Arizona Coyotes last season. Before joining that club, he spent four campaigns with the Colorado Avalanche and his first three with the Boston Bruins.
The rebuilding Blackhawks now hold just over $4 million in cap space, according to CapFriendly. Chicago still needs to get RFA forward Dylan Strome under contract before the start of the 2020-21 season.
