The Edmonton Oilers have signed defenseman Jason Garrison to a one-year contract, the team announced Tuesday.
The veteran rearguard earned a spot on Edmonton's blue line after signing a professional tryout with the club back on Aug. 28.
The 33-year-old suited up in just eight games for the Vegas Golden Knights last season, spending most of his 2017-18 campaign in the AHL, where he tallied eight goals and 20 assists in 58 games.
Garrison has logged 538 games in the NHL, highlighted by a 16-goal season in 2011-12 with the Florida Panthers.
