Signing one-day deal
Hossa will sign a one-day contract with Chicago on Thursday in order to retire as a Blackhawk, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite not having played sign the 2016-17 season, Hossa hadn't officially retired yet while his contract didn't expire until after last season. The Hall-of-Famer spent eight of his 19 NHL seasons playing for the Hawks, including his three Stanley Cup championships. All told, Hossa played in 1,309 games in which he recorded 525 goals and 609 assists, plus another 149 points in 205 postseason contests.

Father Time finally caught up with the seemingly ageless Hossa in 2015-16, as the 37-year-old winger only managed to notch 33 points (13 goals, 20 assists) over 64 games, a significant decline from the 61 points (22 goals, 39 assists) he managed to register over 82 games in 2014-15. Some of that downturn can be attributed to the injuries that forced the Slovakian to miss 18 games last season, as well as a severe lack of puck luck. However, at this stage in his career, Hossa's impact for the Blackhawks will largely come in the form of his fantastic play in the defensive zone and on the backcheck, rather than in the offensive chops he's displayed throughout his 19 years in the NHL. That's not to say he won't be a key contributor on offense for the 'Hawks in 2016-17, because he will, and should be able to rebound significantly from the underwhelming 33-point performance he put together a season ago. Hossa will still be a highly useful fantasy commodity this season, just make sure not to reach for him based on name recognition alone.
