Blue Jackets and Sam Gagner agree to one-year deal
The Columbus Blue Jackets have signed free agent right winger Sam Gagner to a one-year contract.
Gagner wasn't a coveted free agent, sitting on the market for some time with very little fanfare around him, but the former Philadelphia Flyer found a new home in Columbus.
Gagner had a career-low 13:52 Average Time on Ice last year, and tallied only eight goals and eight assists in 53 games with the Flyers. He did manage a respectable 1.6 Relative Corsi For percentage at Even Strength, which marked his second straight season with a positive number in that metric.
