Sanford signed a one-year, two-way contract with Chicago on Tuesday.
Scouting Report
The big, strong forward has the potential to be a perennial 20-goal scorer. Is not a speedster but skates well enough. Plays with energy and his size makes it difficult to take the puck away from him. More consistency should earn him additional (and better) ice time. Can line up at all three forward positions, which adds value.
Long Range Potential: Big, inconsistent power forward.
