The Minnesota Wild have signed restricted free agent Graeme Clarke to a one-year, two-way contract, the team announced Tuesday.

The deal is worth $800,000 at the NHL level and $105,000 in the American Hockey League.

Minnesota acquired Clarke in a trade with the New Jersey Devils on June 21 in exchange for Adam Beckman.

Clarke made his NHL debut this past season and appeared in three games with the Devils. He had 49 points (25 goals and 24 assists) in 67 games with the Utica Comets of the American Hockey League.

The 23-year-old forward from Waconia, Minn., was drafted in the third round, 80th overall, by the Devils in 2019.
