Blue Jackets Sign Egor Zamula to One-Year Deal After Penguins Termination

Defenseman Egor Zamula has signed a one-year, prorated $1 million deal with the Columbus Blue Jackets after clearing waivers. Zamula was recently acquired by the Penguins from the Flyers but had his contract terminated after being suspended for not reporting to their AHL affiliate. Blue Jackets GM Don Waddell praised Zamula, who has 41 points in 168 career NHL games, as a mobile defenseman with good size and puck-moving ability.
