Zdeno Chara Inks Deal With Capitals
4 years agoDefenseman Zdeno Chara has signed a contract to play with the Washington Capitals during the 2020-2021 season. Contract details have not yet been announced. The 43-year-old, who played his last 14 seasons as a member of the Boston Bruins, produced 14 points (five goals, nine assists) and a plus-26 rating to go along with 101 blocks and 78 hits in 68 contests in 2019-2020. The news comes in as a bit of a shocker as the 2011 Stanley Cup Champion has been as stable as they come on the Boston blue line for quite some time. While Chara's play has slipped a bit in recent years (now considered more of a bottom-pair defender), fantasy owners should keep an eye on the mammoth blueliner after drafts as he still manages to produce in peripheral categories.
