PITTSBURGH (Ticker) -- The Pittsburgh Penguins re-signed right wing Aleksey Morozov late Tuesday night, avoiding arbitration.

Terms were not disclosed.

Morozov, 25, was a Group II restricted free agent, meaning the Penguins had the right to match any team's offer.

Last season, Morozov played 72 games for the Penguins and totaled career highs with 20 goals and 29 assists, ranking third and fourth on the team, respectively.

A 6-1, 202-pound Russian, Morozov has 59 goals, 85 assists and 58 penalty minutes in 349 NHL games. He was the 24th overall pick by Pittsburgh in the 1995 draft.
