Blackhawks re-sign forward Lukas Reichel to a 2-year contract

The Chicago Blackhawks have re-signed forward Lukas Reichel to a two-year contract. The Blackhawks were hoping for a breakout performance from Reichel this season, but he struggled with inconsistency for much of the year. Reichel, who turns 22 on May 17, finished with five goals and 11 assists in 65 games. “I think it's a good opportunity for us to potentially gain some value,” general manager Kyle Davidson said.
