Coyotes Re-Sign Martin Hanzal to Two-Year Deal

The Phoenix Coyotes have announced that they have re-signed center Martin Hanzal to a two-year contract worth $3.6 million. The deal will pay him $1.5 million in 2010-11 and $2.1 million in 2011-12. In 81 games last season with the Coyotes, he had 11 goals and 22 assists for 33 points and 104 penalty minutes. Not a bad signing for Phoenix despite Hanzal's lack of consistency at the NHL level. He brings lots of size, grit, two-way ability, and rugged play to the lineup, and will likely center the third line next season.
