(Sports Network) - The New Jersey Devils have re-signed defenseman Johnny Oduya to a multi-year contract.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Oduya posted career highs of seven goals, 22 assists and 29 points while skating in all 82 regular-season games during the 2008-09 campaign. He has spent the past three seasons with the Devils and has compiled 15 goals with 51 assists for 66 points in 233 games.

"We are delighted to have Johnny Oduya stay with the organization," said Devils president/CEO/general manager Lou Lamoriello. "He has developed into one of the more talented young defensemen in the National Hockey League."

The 27-year-old Oduya signed with New Jersey in July 2006 as a free agent after playing three seasons in the Swedish Elite League.
