The Vancouver Canucks agreed to terms with forward Vasily Podkolzin on a two-year contract on Thursday.
The Canucks did not disclose the specifics but TSN reported the deal carries a $1 million average annual value.
Podkolzin, 22, had two assists in 18 games with the Canucks in 2023-24. He added 28 points (15 goals, 13 assists) in 44 games with Abbotsford of the American Hockey League.
“We are happy with how hard Vasily has worked on his game to try and become a more consistent player,” general manager Patrik Allvin said in a news release. “While there is still room for him to grow, starting the year in Abbotsford and working his way back up to Vancouver shows the type of commitment and dedication we want in all our players. Our group looks to forward to helping Vasily continue to improve and get better.”
Podkolzin has tallied 35 points (18 goals, 17 assists) in 136 career NHL games since Vancouver drafted him 10th overall in 2019.
