Forward Jakob Silfverberg and the Ducks struck a deal on a one-year contract valued at $850,000 Friday, the team announced.

Financial terms were given by a hockey official not authorized to discuss the subject publicly.

Silfverberg, who’ll turn 24 on Oct. 13, had 10 goals and 13 assists in a career-high 52 NHL games last season after coming to Anaheim along with draft picks from the Ottawa Senators last summer in exchange for forward Bobby Ryan.

Silfverberg will again be a free agent following this coming season.

Ducks veterans are expected to report to training camp around Sept. 18.
