Inks one-year deal
Sawchenko signed a one-year, two-way contract with Columbus on Saturday.
Impact
Sawchenko played seven NHL games with San Jose in 2021-22, going 1-2-1 with a 3.35 GAA and a .901 save percentage. He has bounced around the minors ever since, playing for AHL Chicago, Abbotsford and Cleveland in the last three seasons. Sawchenko was 10-11-5 with a 3.00 GAA and a .900 save percentage across 27 regular-season appearances with the Monsters last season. He could see some NHL action next season if Elvis Merzlikins or Jet Greaves suffer an injury.

Returns to minors
Sawchenko was sent to AHL Cleveland on Wednesday.
Impact
Sawchenko had a 2.12 GAA and a .924 save percentage in six regular-season games with AHL Abbotsford in 2023-24. Elvis Merzlikins and Daniil Tarasov are expected to be the Blue Jackets' two goaltenders going into the 2024-25 campaign, and Jet Greaves is likely also ahead of Sawchenko in the depth charts.
