The Ottawa Senators have locked up another RFA, extending forward Rudolfs Balcers for another season.
The one-year, two-way extension is worth $753K in the NHL, and $70K in the AHL.
In a statement issued by the team, GM Pierre Dorion said of Balcers:
“Despite a discouraging injury at the start to the year, Rudolfs battled back to become an important contributor to Belleville’s success last season. 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.
