Klingberg had 10 goals, 23 assists, 112 SOG, 34 PIMs and a -25 plus/minus through 67 games with both Anaheim and Minnesota and has signed a one-year contract with Toronto worth $4.15 million. The 30-year-old defender joins his fourth NHL team bringing with him 81 goals and 407 points across 619 career NHL games.
Klingberg has yet to make an appearance in the playoffs due to an lower-body injury but is expected to draw back into the Wilds' lineup for Game 3 Friday after taking the morning skate.

Klingberg suffered a lower-body injury during Saturday's practice and was not on the ice for Monday's morning skate. Head coach Dean Evason would not disclose his lineup for Game 1 and Klingberg did not come out for warmups so is considered out.
