Blackhawks Re-Sign Hendry, Boynton; Add Pisani

The Chicago Blackhawks have announced that they have re-signed defensemen Jordan Hendry and Nick Boynton to one-year contracts. The financial terms of both deals were not disclosed. The team also announced that they have signed free agent right wing Fernando Pisani to a one-year contract worth $750,000. Hendry and Boynton aren't bad depth signings for the Blackhawks. Hendry plays with a little toughness and is a capable defensive defenseman, while Boynton also plays with lots of grit and toughness and has good size. Boynton will likely be a sixth defenseman for the team next season, while Hendry may have to compete for a roster spot at training camp, but still could end up being the seventh defenseman. Pisani is an okay signing for the Blackhawks, as he will bring plenty of veteran depth to the forward lines, as well as some two-way play. However, he is not a very consistent scorer and is prone to injury. Right now he is currently suffering back spasms, which could keep him out of the lineup when the regular season starts, depending on how severe they are.
