Senators Sign Wolanin for Two Years

And then there were two.

Pierre Dorion has apparently crossed another RFA off his summer To Do List this morning, locking up defenceman Christian Wolanin to a two year deal.

The first (two-way) year is worth $800,000 in the NHL and $100,000 in the AHL while the second year is a one-way deal worth $1,000,000. Nobody gets value from their RFAs quite like the Ottawa Senators.

Wolanin appeared in 30 games with the Senators last year, putting up 12 points.

With the blueline looking a little bit crowded, the Sens will be happy with the flexibility of a two-way deal next season.

Although based on his progress last year, you would certainly think Wolanin has a good shot at a spot in the line up on opening night.

Colin White and the recently-acquired Michael Carcone are the remaining RFAs still without a contract.
