Chris Kelly will go from Olympic bronze to a shot at the Silver Mug.
Team Canada's Olympic captain signed a one-year deal with the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday, an agreement that will pay him $1.25 million prorated for the balance of the season.
The contract also contains unspecified bonuses.
Prior to joining the Olympic squad, the 37-year-old Kelly appeared in 16 games with Belleville, the Senators' AHL squad, for which he tallied two assists.
Kelly registered 12 points in 82 games with Ottawa last season.
