Avalanche sign Anton Lindholm to 3-year entry-level deal

The Colorado Avalanche signed defenseman Anton Lindholm to a three-year entry-level contract Tuesday.

The 21-year-old spent this past season with Skelleftea AIK of the Swedish Hockey League where he posted four assists in a limited 30 games - due to an injury - and added another helper in 16 playoff games.

Lindholm was drafted by the Avalanche in the fifth round in 2014 and most recently suited up in three games for Sweden at the World Hockey Championship.
