At least that's what informant Kevin Weekes revealed on Wednesday on the social network X (formerly Twitter). According to him, the total value of this new agreement would be more than $8 million.
The 31-year-old goaltender was traded from the Toronto Maple Leafs to the Blackhawks in July 2022. His current contract, which ends at the end of the season, was also signed with the Queen City team in 2021.
Since arriving at Illinois, Mrazek has compiled a 22-39-4 record, a 3.36 goals-against average and a .900 save percentage.
During his career in the National Hockey League, the 6-foot-2 goaltender collected 162 wins in 366 games with the Detroit Red Wings, Carolina Hurricanes, Philadelphia Flyers, Maple Leafs and Blackhawks.
