The New Jersey Devils re-signed forward Nolan Foote to a one-year, two-way contract, the team announced Monday.

The deal is worth $825,000 at the NHL level and $150,000 ($200,000 guaranteed) in the American Hockey League.

Foote, who was a restricted free agent, missed most of last season due to a back injury. He had one goal in four games with the Devils plus three goals and one assist in four games with the AHL’s Utica Comets.

Foote was drafted in the first round, 27th overall, by the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2019 but never suited up with the club. He was traded to the Devils in February 2020 along with a first-round pick for Blake Coleman.

The 23-year-old Foote has six goals and two assists in 23 career games over four seasons with the Devils.

He is the son of former NHL defenceman Adam Foote.
