Senators Sign Pat Cannone to Two-Year Extension

The Ottawa Senators have announced that they have re-signed center Pat Cannone to a two-year contract extension.  The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.  He would have been eligible for restricted free agency this summer.  In 76 games this past season with Binghamton of the AHL, he had 19 goals and 24 assists for 43 points.  This is really just a depth signing for the Senators, as Cannone will likely spend the majority of next season in the AHL, providing plenty of offensive depth for Binghamton.  If he sees any time in the NHL during the 2012-13 season, it will likely be as an injury replacement.
