The Colorado Avalanche acquired forward Fredrik Olofsson from the Dallas Stars on Thursday in exchange for future considerations.
The Avalanche say Olofsson has agreed to a one-year deal for 2023-24 after playing on a one-year, $750,000 contract last year.
Olofsson, 27. split last season between AHL Texas and Dallas, playing his first 28 career games in the NHL.
The Swede had one goal and three assists with Dallas.
Prior to signing with the Stars, Oloffson spent the previous three years playing in Sweden.
The Chicago Blackhawks picked Olofsson in the fourth round (98th overall) of the 2014 draft, but he never played for the organization -- opting to play four years of college hockey at Nebraska-Omaha.
