ARLINGTON, Va. -- Backup goaltender Philipp Grubauer has agreed to a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Washington Capitals.
The team announced Thursday that it had re-signed its last remaining restricted free agent.
The 25-year-old German went 13-6-2 with a 2.04 goals-against average, .926 save percentage and three shutouts in 24 games with Washington last season.
The Capitals were the Presidents' Trophy winners for the second time in a row last season before losing to the Pittsburgh Penguins in the second round of the playoffs.
They re-signed center Evgeny Kuznetsov to an eight-year, $62.4 million deal and kept right wingers T.J. Oshie and Andre Burakovsky and defenseman Dmitry Orlov.
