The Minnesota Wild have signed forward Nick Bjugstad to a one-year, $900,000 contract, the team announced Monday.

Bjugstad was set for unrestricted free agency this summer following his six-year, $24.6-million contract he signed with the Florida Panthers in 2014.

The Pittsburgh Penguins traded Bjugstad to the Wild last September. He notched 17 points in 44 games while averaging 11:49 of ice time per contest with the Wild.

Florida drafted Bjugstad 19th overall in 2010. He's recorded 224 points in 483 career contests.
