The Minnesota Wild have agreed to re-sign forward Kurtis Gabriel to a one-year, two-way contract.

Gabriel will either make $715,000 in the NHL or $70,000 in the AHL. The 24-year-old forward played in 13 games last season for the Wild, registering his first career point with an assist against the Toronto Maple Leafs in December.

The Newmarket, Ont., native spent the majority of his playing time throughout the 2016-17 campaign with the AHL’s Iowa Wild, posting eight goals and two assists in 49 games.

At six-foot-four, and 211 pounds, Gabriel was originally picked by the Wild in the third round (81st overall) of the 2013 Entry Draft.
