Capitals Sign Chris Bourque

As first reported by Caps senior writer Mike Vogel, the Washington Capitals have signed left wing Chris Bourque to a one-year contract.  The financial details of the deal are not available at this time, though it is believed to be a two-way deal.
Bourque, 25, is a former Capitals farmhand who split time between Russia's KHL and Switzerland's A-League last season while scoring 34 total points (15 goals) in 47 games. The Boston, MA, native won three Calder Cups while in the Washington's AHL affiliate the Hershey Bears, and his acquisition is, at this point, likely organizational depth.
