Devante Smith-Pelly wants a chance to repeat.

The Washington Capitals have agreed to terms on a one-year, $1-million contract with the forward, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.

Smith-Pelly, who was previously set to be a restricted free agent, was not given a qualifying offer by the Caps prior to Monday's deadline, granting him unrestricted status. He therefore could've signed with any team he wanted on July 1, but apparently chose to remain in D.C.

His decision to stay came in spite of multiple offers - including a two-year deal - that were worth more, according to The Athletic's Pierre LeBrun.

Smith-Pelly had just seven goals in 75 regular-season games in 2017-18, but matched that total in only 24 playoff contests. The 26-year-old will likely fulfill a fourth-line role with the Caps once again next season.
