Ducks Re-Sign Todd Marchant for Two Years

The Anaheim Ducks retained some offensive depth on Tuesday by re-signing center Todd Marchant to a two-year contract worth $2.25 million. The deal averages out to $1.125 million per season. Marchant appeared in 72 games last season for the Ducks, scoring five goals and 13 assists for 18 points. In 1038 career games with the Ducks, New York Rangers, Edmonton Oilers, and Columbus Blue Jackets, he has 176 goals and 292 assists for 468 points. This is a decent signing for the Ducks, as Marchant is a decent two-way player with lots of experience and good skills on the penalty kill. Marchant’s production has definitely dropped over the past several years, but his two-way play still makes him an effective shutdown player on the ice for the Ducks.
