CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Bowen Byram has agreed to a $75 million, six-year contract extension with his new team.
The deal was announced Wednesday, the first day that Byram was eligible to sign an extension. It runs through the 2032-33 season.
The 25-year-old Byram was acquired in a trade with Buffalo on June 23. The Blackhawks sent the No. 4 and No. 45 selections in the NHL draft and defenseman Louis Crevier to the Sabres for Byram and forward Jordan Greenway.
It has been a very busy summer for Byram, who got married last weekend in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
The Blackhawks are counting on Byram to take over as their No. 1 defenseman — and they paid him accordingly.
