McElhinney is coming off a one-year deal worth $600K, in which he went 12-14-2 through 32 games with an even strength AdSv% of 92.04%. That’s the best AdSv% the 32-year-old netminder has posted in his NHL career, which spans 129 games over seven seasons spent with Columbus, Calgary, Anaheim, Ottawa, and Arizona.
McElhinney will continue to back-up Sergei Bobrovsky, who has four-years left on a contract with an AAV of $7.425 million.
