Nilsson
agreed to terms on a one-year, $700,000 contract extension with the Blackhawks on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Nilsson's extension will keep him with the Blackhawks organization through the 2019-20 season. The 25-year-old forward posted solid numbers in 2018-19, notching 32 points in 61 AHL appearances, but there's no reason to believe he'll be able to secure a regular role with the big club anytime soon.
