The Ottawa Senators have signed forward Rudolfs Balcers to a one-year, two-way contract.
Balcers, who was a restricted free agent, will make $735,000 at the NHL level and $70,000 in the AHL for the 2020-21 season.
The 23-year-old was acquired from the San Jose Sharks in the Erik Karlsson trade in 2018. He appeared in 63 games for AHL Bellville last season, scoring 16 goals and 36 points. He also had three points in 15 NHL games.
He suffered an MCL injury in September of 2019 and missed more than a month of play as a result.
"Despite a discouraging injury at the start to the year, Rudolfs battled back to become an important contributor to Belleville's success last season," said Senators general manager Pierre Dorion in a statement. "He's a dynamic player with a great release, who's quick and who has good skill. We're confident that he'll set out to prove that he's overcome last year's setback to be a full-time player in Ottawa."
With Balcers signed, forwards Connor Brown and Chris Tierney are the only restricted free agents the Senators still need to reach agreements with.
