Free-agent forward Joel Kiviranta signed a one-year contract on Friday to rejoin the Colorado Avalanche.
Financial terms were not disclosed by the Avalanche.
Kiviranta, 29, recorded career highs in goals (16), assists (seven), points (23) and game-winning goals (two) in 79 games last season with Colorado. The Finland native played on a one-year, $775,000 deal last season.
“Joel is a hard-working, responsible player who has demonstrated he can be a key contributor at five-on-five,” Avalanche general manager Chris MacFarland said. “He has been a valuable member of our lineup, and we are excited to have him back for another season.”
Kiviranta has collected 60 points (35 goals, 25 assists) in 298 career games with the Dallas Stars and Avalanche.
