Marc-Andre Bergeron News

The Blue Jackets have agreed to a one-year, two-way deal with Marc-Andre Bergeron.

Bergeron has been with Cleveland (AHL) where he has registered three goals and six assists (nine points) in 13 games. The 36-year-old defenseman is back in North America after spending the last three years in Switzerland. He was added as blueline depth for a Blue Jackets team with their eyes on the playoffs.

Bergeron has only appeared in 12 games this season and scored just one goal and four assists. The 32-year-old defenseman posted 24 points in only 43 games last season. He is good on the power-play because he has a heavy shot, which should help the Hurricanes who rank last in the NHL in PP%. He should see plenty of PP time, which should increase his production and subsequently his fantasy value.
