The Carolina Hurricanes have reportedly signed KHL netminder Amir Miftakhov to a one-year deal.

The deal is a two-way contract that will pay Miftakhov $775,000 at the NHL level and $100,000 at the AHL level, with a $240,000 guarantee.

The Russian goalie had a 13-11-3 record with Ak Bars Kazan last season with a 0.927 save percentage.

"Amir has put together a number of solid seasons in the KHL and is ready to return to professional hockey in North America," said Carolina general manager Eric Tulsky." It’s important to have goaltending depth, and we look forward to having him in our organization.”

The 25-year-old was drafted in 2020 by the Tampa Bay Lightning and spent just one season in North America before returning to Russia.

Over the last three seasons, Miftakhov has had a 0.927 save percentage, 0.930 and a 0.917.

It provides the Canes with additional goaltending depth, a position that they were severely lacking in.
