CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Blackhawks agreed on
Tuesday to a three-year, entry-level contract with Anton
Frondell, who was the No. 3 overall pick in last month's draft.
The 18-year-old Swedish forward's deal has a $975,000 salary cap
hit.
Frondell scored 11 goals and had 14 assists last season over 29
regular-season games for Djurgarden, which played in Sweden's
second division. His production was part of the reason the team
earned promotion to the top division this year.
Frondell also helped Sweden win the silver medal at the 2025
IIHF World U18 Championship. He scored a goal and had two
assists over three games.
