The 34-year-old forward had 26 points (11 goals, 15 assists) in 50 games for the Seattle Kraken last season.

Selected by the St. Louis Blues in the first round (No. 14) of the 2010 NHL Draft, Schwartz has 553 points (233 goals, 320 assists) in 861 regular-season games for the Blues and Kraken and 64 points (31 goals, 33 assists) in 102 Stanley Cup Playoff games.
