(670 The Score) The Blackhawks have signed forward Carl Soderberg to a one-year $1-million deal, they announced Saturday.
Soderberg, 35, had 35 points (17 goals, 18 assists) in 70 regular-season games for the Coyotes last season.
“Carl is an experienced center who plays a strong two-way game and adds an element of size to our group of centermen,” Blackhawks president of hockey operations Stan Bowman said in a statement. “He has shown the ability to score and match up, which is critical in today’s game, and he also brings consistency and versatility to the team, evidenced by his usage on both special teams as well as even-strength play.”
Soderberg has 280 points in 552 career games across eight NHL seasons.
