Talks between the club and restricted free agent appeared to have stalled last month, with Rieder's agent hinting that a trade out of Arizona could be best for both sides.
"Toby is extremely happy to get this done and looks forward to joining his teammates in Arizona," his agent Darren Ferris said via text message, according to azcentral sports' Sarah McLellan.
Rieder, 23, appeared in all 82 games last season, recording 14 goals and 23 assists.
