According to TSN, Joe Sakic has signed a 1 year deal with the Colorado Avalanche. Sakic was an unrestricted free agent, although he wouldn’t consider playing anywhere but for Colorado. Sakic has played his entire career with the Avalanche/Nordiques and has been the captain of the team for both of their Stanley Cup victories. Here is what Super Joe had to say about his return:
“Ultimately it came down to the fact that I still enjoy playing and competing,” said Sakic. “I’m comfortable with my conditioning and my overall health. I’m ready for the start of camp and am looking forward to the upcoming season.”
