Ducks Re-Sign Defenseman Salcido to One-Year Deal

The Anaheim Ducks announced late Monday night that they have re-signed defenseman Brian Salcido to a one-year contract. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Salcido played on only two games for the Ducks last season, scoring one assist. He also appeared in 76 games for the Ducks’ AHL affiliate, Iowa Chops, scoring 10 goals and 33 assists for 43 points and 108 penalty minutes. This is a good signing for the Ducks, as Salcido has good offensive skills on the blueline and plays with a physical edge. He has the potential to become a top-four offensive defenseman in the league and will likely be an important part of the Ducks’ future for the next several seasons.
