Chris Kelly will return to the Ottawa Senators on a one-year, $900K deal. Kelly played for the Senators from 2003-04 until 2010-11 before he was shipped off to Boston.
Last season, Kelly had two goals in 11 games. He was limited to only 11 games after fracturing his femur. Prior to that, Kelly had 28 points (7-21) in 80 games during the 2014-15 Bruins campaign.
Kelly returns to a Senators team seeking a chance at going back to the playoffs after missing in 2015-16. The 900K contract is a bargain for a player, who if healthy, could replicate his 2014-15 efforts with Boston.
