Chicago Blackhawks News
The Red Wings have signed Tyler Bertuzzi to a two-year contract worth $9.5 million ($4.75M AAV).
The Flames have signed Andy Welinski to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Maple Leafs have signed Pavel Gogolev to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The Ducks have signed Buddy Robinson to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Maple Leafs have signed Brett Seney to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Blackhawks have signed Seth Jones to an eight-year, $76 million contract extension.
The Bruins have signed Nick Foligno to a two-year contract worth $7.6 million ($3.8M AAV).
The Kings have re-signed Andreas Athanasiou to a one-year deal worth $2.7M.
The Maple Leafs signed Petr Mrazek to a three-year contract worth $11.4 million ($3.8M AAV).

The Golden Knights have signed Alec Martinez to a three-year contract extension worth $15.75 million ($5.25M AAV).
The Blackhawks have acquired Seth Jones, the No.32 overall pick and a 2022 sixth-round pick from the Blue Jackets for Adam Boqvist, the No.12 overall pick, a 2021 second-round pick and a 2022 first-round pick.
Jones has one year left on his deal that carries a $5.4M cap-hit but was due for a raise and made it clear he wasn't interested in returning to Columbus. Jones had a modified no-trade clause so he was interested in joining the Blackhawks and received a massive eight-year extension immediately following the trade. Jones' offensive numbers have been trending towards in the last two seasons and he has many detractors, especially in the analytics community, so this will definitely be a deal worth monitoring for the future.
The Bruins have signed Taylor Hall to a four-year contract extension worth $24.0 million ($6.0M AAV).
Hall had a slow start with the Sabres in 2021 but found his stride after a midseason trade to the Bruins. Once in Boston, Hall was tied for 32nd with 14 points (8G / 6A) in 16 games. Hall was the perfect fit for the Bruins' second line and signs a very reasonable $6.0M AAV deal to stay with them for the next four years.
The Canucks have acquired Jason Dickinson from the Stars for a 3rd round pick.
Dickinson is a pending RFA and the Stars were likely worried about losing him for nothing in the Expansion Draft, so they get a third-round pick in return by sending him to Vancouver. Dickinson has averaged 10 goals and 16 assists (26 points) per 82-games over the last three seasons. The Canucks have protected Dickinson in the Expansion Draft.
The Blackhawks have signed Jakub Pour to a two-year, entry-level contract.
The Blackhawks have signed Lukas Reichel to a three-year, entry-level contract.
Reichel was selected No.17 overall in 2020 and made another splash in the DEL in 2021, finishing fifth on the team with 27 points (10G / 17A) in 38 games. That's a terrific showing for a 19-year-old, who also had five points (3G / 2A) in seven games while representing Germany at the World Juniors. Reichel has a chance to break into the NHL in the 2021-22 season.
