Oilers make 7-year extension with Oscar Klefbom official

Chris Humphreys / USA TODAY Sports

The Edmonton Oilers and defenseman Oscar Klefbom made their new seven-season pact official Sunday.

The club hasn't disclosed terms, but Klefbom will reportedly earn a shade over $29 million throughout the contract, which works out to a little more than $4 million per season.

Klefbom still has one season left on his rookie deal.

The 22-year-old tallied two goals, 22 points, and totaled 102 blocked shots last season, eventually playing top-pairing minutes.

He was drafted with the 19th overall pick in 2011.
