Two More Signed
The Rangers announced today that they have re-signed restricted free agent defenseman Martin Grenier. Grenier was acquired in March, along with R J Umberger in the deal that sent left wing Martin Rucinsky to the Vancouver Canucks. The rugged defenseman played out the season with the Hartford Wolf Pack and was part of the team that went to game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals after returning from injury.
Grenier split time between the Manitoba Moose and Hartford Wolf Pack of the AHL and appeared in 7 games with the Vancouver Canucks prior to the trade. In 15 career NHL games, the former Colorado Avalanche draft pick has scored 1 goal and registered 14 penalty minutes.
