Ice Scoopz: Tuesday Afternoon

Tomorrow I'll be announcing the official results of the 2010 Be A GM contest on the forum so check back tomorrow evening for the first ever winner. I still am getting several late entry e-mails but unfortunately to be fair the contest is closed but you still may post your team for the rest of the Ice Scoopz fans to be the judge of.

*-> Tim Kennedy was signed by the New York Rangers Sunday evening. The Rangers and Kennedy agreed to a 1 year 1 way deal similar to his deal with the Buffalo Sabres before being bought out.

*-> Wacey Hamilton of the Medicine Hat tigers has signed a deal with the Colorado Avalanche on a try out basis.

*-> Doug Weight will remain an New York Islander for one more year. The Isles resigned doug Weight today in hopes he will continue the development and mentoring of John Tavares and co.

*-> Over the weekend the Phoenix Coyotes reupped Lee Stempniak to a 2 year deal worth 3.8$ million dollars. The Coyotes have added some much needed secondary scoring to be able to keep their momentum moving forwards.

*-> Also this Sunday a signing which CA broke is that the Edmonton Oilers and Sam Gagner have come to terms. The deal is worth 2.275 million per season or 4.55$ million over 2 years. A bit of a rough signing for the Oilers as I still do not believe Gagner has earned that kind of pay increase in his young career.
