The Vegas Golden Knights have signed goaltender Malcolm Subban to a one-year deal worth $850,000, the team announced Tuesday.

Subban was scheduled to have a salary arbitration hearing July 20 but opted to sign for slightly more than his qualifying offer of $715,000, according to CapFriendly.

"We are pleased to announce this one-year contract for Malcolm," general manager George McPhee said. "He's been a valuable contributor to our team over the last two seasons. We are excited to continue to work with Malcolm and help him reach his full potential as an NHL goaltender."

Subban, 25, played in 21 contests for the Golden Knights last season, posting an 8-10-2 record with a 2.93 goals-against average and a .902 save percentage.

Selected 24th overall by the Boston Bruins at the 2012 NHL Draft, he was claimed off waivers by the Golden Knights in October 2017.
