Oilers ink Chiasson to 1-year deal

The Edmonton Oilers have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Alex Chiasson, the team announced Tuesday.

The veteran forward had been attending Edmonton's training camp on a professional tryout offer. He appeared in four preseason contests, picking up two points.

Chiasson joins the Oilers after spending 2017-18 with the Washington Capitals. He notched 18 points in 61 games last season, then added two more points in the playoffs en route to the Stanley Cup.
