The Chicago Blackhawks signed Pius Suter to a one-year, $925,000 deal beginning next season, the team announced Thursday.

Chicago also inked defenseman Ian Mitchell to a three-year contract that runs through the 2022-23 season with an average annual value of $925,000.

Suter, 24, has played with Switzerland's National League-A Zurich Lions for the past five seasons. He recorded 30 goals and 23 assists in 50 games during 2019-20. His 53 points were the most in the league and helped him earn the MVP award.

The center racked up 81 goals and 87 assists in 210 games during the last five seasons in Switzerland. He also represented the country at the 2018 Olympics, during which he notched five points in four games.

Mitchell, who was selected by the Blackhawks in the second round of the 2017 NHL Draft, just completed his junior season at the University of Denver. He was the team captain during the 2019-20 season and finished the regular season sixth among NCAA defensemen with 32 points.

Over three seasons with the Pioneers, Mitchell registered 89 points in 116 games.
