The Detroit Red Wings have inked Mathias Brome to a one-year, two-way contract, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
It's an entry-level deal, according to MLive's Ansar Khan.
Multiple NHL clubs, including the Vancouver Canucks and Washington Capitals, were reportedly interested in the undrafted forward, who'll turn 26 in July.
Brome produced 17 goals and 43 points in 52 games with Orebro in the Swedish Hockey League this season.
His is the second deal for a European player since the NHL extended its transfer agreements with IIHF member leagues and federations Tuesday. The Arizona Coyotes signed 2019 fourth-round pick Matias Maccelli to an ELC in the afternoon.
