The Pittsburgh Penguins have signed forward Nathan Legare to a three-year, entry-level contract.

Legare, 18, was a third-round pick by the Penguins in June’s NHL Draft.

“Nathan has had a really strong training camp thus far,” general manager Jim Rutherford said in a statement. “We’ve been impressed with his offensive instincts and his overall approach to the game. We’re thrilled to get him signed.”

Last season with the Baie-Comeau Drakkar of the QMJHL, Legare had 45 goals and 87 points.
