Ducks sign Lindstrom to a 1-year contract (update).
Joakim Lindstrom, whom the Ducks acquired in a July 15 trade with Columbus for a 2010 draft pick, has signed a one-year contract. Lindstrom is expected to compete for a top-6 forward spot. It's a two-way contract that translates to $500,000 less to sign Teemu Selanne if Lindstrom makes the NHL roster.
Lindstrom's career stats are a little less impressive than Selanne's.

J.P. Hoornstra has been covering the Anaheim Ducks since 2007. Eight months after the University of Wisconsin won its third NCAA hockey championship, he was born in a frigid Madison winter. He betrayed his blue-blooded beginnings by graduating from UCLA in 2003, and welcomes any and all dialogue on the finer points of hockey.
