The Chicago Blackhawks signed forward Viktor Tikhonov to a one-year deal worth $1.04 million, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
Tikhonov, 27, has played the past four seasons with SKA St. Petersburg in the KHL. He had eight goals and 16 assists in 49 games for SKA during their run to a Gagarlin Cup. He was also a line mate with Artemi Panarin, who signed with the Hawks in April.
