The former Chicago Blackhawks‘ forward/defensemen Dustin Byfuglien is now on the free-agent market again. The 35-year-old defensemen could find his way back to Chicago, which I am fine with, under one condition.
That one condition is a cheap, one year contract. If Byfuglien signs even a two-to-three-year deal with the Blackhawks, they’d be forced to count his payroll to the salary cap if he decided to hang up the skates. So, a one year deal is perfect, especially coming off of an injury.
This contract can’t be over $2,000,000. There can’t be any “no movement clauses” either.
