Darren Dreger is reporting that the Columbus Blue Jackets have signed defenseman Dante Fabbro to a four-year contract worth $4.125 million per season. 

The Blue Jackets have confirmed the signing. 

Fabbro played in 62 games for Columbus after being claimed off waivers from Nashville last season. He scored 9 goals and had 26 points while going plus-23. 

Per a CBJ press release, “Dante was a great addition to our team last season and keeping him in Columbus was a priority,” said Waddell. “He is a smart, versatile defenseman who moves the puck very well and can play in all situations. We are thrilled that he will continue to be an important part of our club moving forward.”

Fabbro playing with Zach Werenski was fun to watch last season, so here's hoping that continues for the next few years.
