This is a bit of a surprise as Klingberg was looking for a long-term contract but will settle for one year at $7 million instead. Klingberg hopes to parlay a big season into a multi-year contract after next season. That may be easier said than done, as the Ducks don’t possess the best of offenses and could struggle to score consistently.
