Former Montreal Canadiens star Guy Lafleur signed a three-year contract with the Quebec Nordiques.
Lafleur, 37, will end his hockey career in the city where he starred as a junior before becoming a star with the Canadiens.
Terms were not released, but published reports this week said the Nordiques had offered Lafleur a three-year deal for $1.2 million.
The New York Rangers, for whom Lafleur played last season, gave up their right to match the Nordiques’ contract in exchange for cash and a fourth- or fifth-round draft choice in 1991.
