NEW YORK (AP) The New York Rangers have agreed to terms with restricted free-agent goaltender Magnus Hellberg.

The 24-year-old Hellberg appeared in 38 games with the Milwaukee Admirals of the AHL last season, posting a 15-10-6 record along with a 2.33 goals-against average.

Hellberg also represented the Western Conference at the recent AHL All-Star Game.

The native of Uppsala, Sweden, was acquired from Nashville on July 1 in exchange for a sixth-round pick in the 2017 draft.

Hellberg was originally selected by the Predators in the second round of the 2011 draft and appeared in one NHL game in 2013.
