The Arizona Coyotes signed winger Drake Caggiula to a one-year contract, the team announced Monday.

Caggiula's deal is worth $700,000, TSN's Pierre LeBrun reports.

The 26-year-old suited up in 40 games with the Chicago Blackhawks last season, recording nine goals and six assists while averaging 11:49 of ice time per contest. Caggiula has averaged 15 goals per 82 games over his four-year career.

"We are very pleased to add Drake to our roster," said Coyotes general manager Bill Armstrong. "He is a hard-working, versatile forward and a strong skater. He will add depth to our forward group."

The Edmonton Oilers signed Caggiula as an undrafted free agent following his standout college career at North Dakota, during which he led the Fighting Hawks to an NCAA championship in 2016 and was named Frozen Four Most Outstanding Player.
