The New Jersey Devils signed goaltender Jacob Markstrom to a two-year contract extension with a $6-million cap hit, the team announced Friday.
Markstrom went 26-16-6 and posted a .900 save percentage in his first campaign with the Devils last season. He was named to Sweden's roster at the 4 Nations Face-Off but was unable to compete due to injury.
The 35-year-old sports an .830 SV% through four starts this year. He allowed eight goals on 42 shots in a 8-4 loss against the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday after missing six games due to a lower-body injury.
