NY Rangers Sign Dale Weise to One-Year Contract

The New York Rangers announced on Monday that they have signed right wing Dale Weise to a one-year contract. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. He would have been a restricted free agent on July 1. In 10 games last season with the Rangers, he had no points and 19 penalty minutes. He also appeared in 47 games with Connecticut of the AHL, scoring 18 goals and 20 assists for 38 points and 73 penalty minutes. This is really just a depth signing for the Rangers, as Weise will likely spend the majority of next season in the minors. If he does see any time with New York, he will bring plenty of toughness and size to the lineup.
