Kris Versteeg

Great news for Blackhawks fans. The Hawks have reacquired former Blackhawk Kris Versteeg, a key member of their 2010 Stanley Cup team.

"We're really excited," Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman said. "Looking at our team this year, we're off to a really good start. I think we've come out of the gates the way we wanted to, [but] we're always trying to improve. I think just the experience and versatility he brings to the table [are key], on top of the fact that he's a player our coaches know well and our players are familiar with. He has a lot of energy and competitiveness and he's got great skill level to complement our players, so we think it's a great fit."
