The Colorado Avalanche welcomed back another familiar face Sunday when they re-acquired defenseman Jack Johnson in a trade with the Chicago Blackhawks that saw defenseman Andreas Englund go in the other direction.
After spending the majority of his career in the Eastern Conference, Johnson's lone season with the Avalanche saw him finish with nine points in 74 games before playing in 11 playoff games in what led to the franchise winning their third Stanley Cup title.
He was a pending unrestricted free agent who was among the many players who left because of salary cap limitations.
