The Pittsburgh Penguins added forward depth Tuesday with the signing of veteran Jason Williams to a one-year contract.
Williams, 30, agreed to a two-way deal that is worth $600,000 at the NHL level. He finished last season with Dallas, posting 2 goals and 5 points in 27 games, after spending two months playing in the AHL for the Connecticut Whale.
An undrafted free agent, Williams broke into the NHL with Detroit in 2000-01 and was part of the Red Wings' championship team the following season. His best season came in 2005-06 when he posted 21 goals and 58 points in 80 games.
Williams has also played for Chicago, Atlanta and Columbus while returning briefly for a second stint in Detroit. For his career, he has 93 goals and 225 points in 447 games.
