The entry-level deal for Greene runs through
the 2026-27 season with a $950,000 salary cap hit. The
21-year-old forward likely will play in Chicago's last two games
of the season.
The Blackhawks announced the deal on Sunday, a day after Greene
and Boston University lost to Western Michigan in the NCAA
championship. Greene had 13 goals and 25 assists in 40 games
during his junior season with the Terriers.
The 6-foot-2 Greene was selected by Chicago in the second round
of the 2022 draft.
The lowly Blackhawks are 3-11-3 in their past 17 games. They
visit Montreal on Monday before their season finale at Ottawa on
Tuesday night.
But there have been some positive signs for Chicago as some of
its top prospects have been added to the team. Defenseman Artyom
Levshunov made his NHL debut on March 10, and forward Oliver
Moore and defenseman Sam Rinzel played in their first game with
Chicago on March 30.
