The Toronto Maple Leafs are to sign forward Kenny Agostino to a two-year, one-way contract with an average annual value close to $700,000, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.
Agostino recorded career highs with six goals and 24 points in 63 games between the Montreal Canadiens and New Jersey Devils last season.
With restricted free agent Mitch Marner in need of a new deal, Leafs general manager Kyle Dubas has little salary space to work with, and the addition of Agostino at close to the league minimum gives the team another depth option up front.
The 27-year-old was selected by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the fifth round of the 2010 NHL Draft.
