The club signed the forward to a one-year deal, with the 23-year-old set to become a restricted free agent on July 1.

Andrighetto enjoyed his longest tenure with the Canadiens this season, after being drafted by the team in the third round in 2013. He played a career-high 44 games, chipping in with seven goals and 17 points.

He also contributed 10 goals and 23 points in 26 points with the St. John's IceCaps of the American Hockey League.
