Saarjarvi currently plays for the SCL Tigers in Switzerland and has 11 goals and 33 points through 49 games. The 25-year-old was acquired by Chicago as part of the three-team deal which saw New York acquire Patrick Kane.

Saarijarvi was a third-round pick (No.73 overall) in 2015 and never really got things going in the AHL. After posting 31 points (11G / 20A) in 34 games in his final OHL season, Saarijarvi posted just 28 points (2G / 26A) in 125 AHL games. He will report to Tucson (AHL).
