The Ottawa Senators have announced they have signed defenceman Max Guenette to a one-year, two-way contract extension.
The contract carries a value of $775,000 in the NHL and $120,000 in the AHL.
Guenette recently finished his third professional season, mainly with the Belleville Senators.
The 23-year-old established a new pro career high in goals with seven while ranking second among B-Sens in assists with 27 and leading team defencemen in points with 34.
“Max played an important role in Belleville last season,” said Ottawa Senators President of Hockey Operations and general manager, Steve Staios, in a release.
“He’s a strong puck mover who routinely demonstrates good hockey sense. He’s been a deserving recall to Ottawa and someone we’ll look forward to seeing in training camp this fall.”
