Default Picard Re-Signed

http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_yl...v=st&type=lgns

The Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday signed defenseman Alexandre Picard, who was acquired from the Philadelphia Flyers on February 25, to a two-year contract extension.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Picard, 22, played in 20 games for the Lightning after the trade, recording three goals and three assists. He was picked by the Flyers in the second round of the 2003 draft.

“Picard played very well for us following his acquisition and both ownership groups established re-signing him as a priority this offseason,” Tampa Bay general manager Jay Feaster said.

The Lightning also signed 20-year-old defenseman Kevin Quick to a multi-year contract. Taken by the Lightning in the third round of the 2006 draft, Quick played in 18 games for the AHL’s Norfolk Admirals this past season.

“Kevin Quick was able to dip his toe into the professional waters with Norfolk at the end of the season and we trust his experience there helped reinforce the hard work he needs to put in this summer in preparing for his first NHL training camp,” Feaster said.

It's on TSN also, and they need a proofreader, badly.

Quite a feat!

Happy to hear this anyway, I was very impressed with this kid.

Damn, he'll make millions! There goes any chance for a top-6 winger.

Yeah, but at that rate, we won't need that top-6 winger.

Over an 82-game season, that works out to 164 goals and 601 assists, and even if he were involved in every scoring play the Lightning would rack up 765 goals in a season, an average of 9.33 goals a game. As Kenny Mayne would say, "That would be a record."

Even Gretzky would be amazed!

One day I hope because of some skill I have I'll be able to commit crimes and get the big bucks soon after.

I would imagine they must think (or know) there's no chance of jail time if they're giving him a contract. Either that or things have been resolved very quietly.
