The Arizona Coyotes have agreed to terms with first-round pick Clayton Keller on his entry-level contract, TSN's Bob McKenzie reports.

Keller's one and only season with Boston University ended Saturday when the Terriers were eliminated from the quarterfinals of the NCAA tournament by Minnesota-Duluth in overtime.

The plan is for the 18-year-old forward to join the Coyotes immediately and play the rest of the season in the NHL, according to Arizona Sports 98.7's Craig Morgan.

Keller racked up 21 goals and 45 points in 31 games with BU.

He was selected seventh overall by the Coyotes in last year's draft.
