Matt Cullen is giving it another go.

The Pittsburgh Penguins re-signed the veteran forward to a one-year contract worth $1 million, the club announced Wednesday.

Cullen reunited with general manager Jim Rutherford - whom he won a Cup with in Carolina in 2006 - in Pittsburgh on a one-year deal last offseason after contemplating retirement. Cullen, however, ended up becoming a key piece to the Penguins' Stanley Cup run.

The 39-year-old suited up in all 82 contests last season, notching 16 goals and 16 assists, chipping in another six points in 24 playoff games.
