Maple Leafs sign defenseman John Klingberg on Saturday.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have added some depth to their blue line.

National Hockey League insider Elliotte Friedman was the first to break the news, revealing that Klingberg has come to terms with the Maple Leafs on a 1 year deal that is valued at $4.15 million. That of course works out to an average annual value and salary cap hit of $4.15 million for the Leafs.

Klingberg is coming off a season split between the Anaheim Ducks and Minnesota Wild, a season in which he appeared in a combined total of 77 regular season games, scoring 10 goals and adding 23 assists for a total of 33 points on the season.

It's hard not to feel for Klingberg upon learning of this news when you consider that, a little over a year ago, he famously turned down what was reported to be an 8 year deal from the Dallas Stars with an average annual value of $7 million per season. That missed opportunity for Klingberg however has now turned into an opportunity for the Maple Leafs and general manager Brad Treliving has pounced on it in the first day of free agency.
