The Seattle Kraken have signed their last remaining restricted free agent. On Tuesday, the team announced that they've agreed to terms on a one-year contract worth $750,000 with defenceman Cale Fleury.

"Cale took another step in his development last year, specifically with his offensive game while playing for Charlotte," said Kraken GM Ron Francis. "We are excited we reached an agreement for Cale to return to the Kraken organization."

Fleury, 23, was selected by the Kraken in the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft from the Montreal Canadiens. The Carlyle (Saskatchewan) native appeared in nine games for the Kraken last season, recording no points, no penalty minutes and was a minus-three.

He spent the majority of the season in the American Hockey League with the Charlotte Checkers, where he set new a career-high in points. In 58 games, Fleury had 33 points (seven goals, 26 assists), 39 penalty minutes and was a plus-thirteen. Fleury went on to add three assists in seven playoff games.
