The Washington Capitals signed defenseman Martin Fehervary to a three-year contract with an average annual value of $2.675 million, the team announced Tuesday.

Fehervary tallied six goals and 16 points in 67 games with the Capitals last season. He was a restricted free agent.

The 23-year-old led Washington in hits with 217 and was tied for second on the team with 128 blocked shots. His 20:00 average ice time was a career high.

Fehervary's contract pays him $3.4 million in total salary in the first season, according to CapFriendly. He'll receive a $1-million signing bonus each year of the deal.

Based on the front-loaded nature of the deal and the amount of signing bonuses, Fehervary's qualifying offer in 2026 will only be $1.075 million.

Henrik Borgstrom is the lone restricted free agent the Capitals have left, but the depth forward has already signed in Sweden for the 2023-24 campaign.

Washington has $888,333 of cap space remaining, per CapFriendly. The Capitals have $21.7 million tied up on defense after the signing.
