The Ducks signed Jeff Schultz to a one-year, two-way contract.

Schultz, 30, spent last season in the AHL, aside from his one appearance with the Kings. He had 18 points (3G / 15A) in 66 games with the Ontario Reign. Schultz is not known for his offensive output, so don’t expect him to have a fantasy impact if he is able to make it to the NHL next year.
