The Devils signed forward prospect Joey Anderson to a three-year entry level contract on Sunday.

The 19-year-old Anderson is in New Jersey and will join the NHL team on Monday. The first year of Anderson's contract will count toward the 2017-18 season, so he will have two years left on his deal starting next season.

Anderson is eligible to play in the postseason with the Devils, who play Game 3 of their first-round series against the Tampa Bay Lightning at 7:30 p.m. on Monday at Prudential Center.

The Devils selected Anderson with the 73rd overall pick in the 2016 NHL Draft.
