The Carolina Hurricanes have signed forward Andrew Poturalski to a one-year, two-way contract, the team announced Wednesday.

The deal is worth $750,000 at the NHL level and $200,000 at the AHL level, with $250,000 guaranteed.

Poturalski, 27, was named the Calder Cup Playoffs MVP in 2019 with the Charlotte Checkers. He spent the last two seasons with the San Diego Gulls, the Anaheim Ducks' minor-league affiliate.

This will be the forward's second stint with Carolina. In 2016-17, he appeared in the only two NHL games of his career in a Hurricanes uniform.
