The Anaheim Ducks have given defenseman Josh Manson a two-year, one-way contract extension with a cap hit of $825,000.

The Ducks have since confirmed the signing, which was first reported by Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times.

Manson’s extension doesn’t kick in until 2016-17. He’ll still be on a two-way deal next season.

Manson split last season between the NHL and AHL. He had three assists in 28 games with the Ducks, having made his NHL debut in October.

The 23-year-old son of former NHLer Dave Manson will again have to compete for playing time next season. The Ducks have a deep blue line featuring Cam Fowler, Hampus Lindholm, Sami Vatanen, Simon Despres, Clayton Stoner, Korbinian Holzer, and new addition Kevin Bieksa.
