The San Jose Sharks have re-signed forward Matt Nieto to a one-year, $735,000 contract, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

Nieto was a restricted free agent coming off his entry-level deal.

The 23-year-old was brought back on the heels of his worst statistical season since entering the league, mustering a career-low eight goals and 17 points in 67 games, while adding a goal and two assists in 16 playoff contests.
