As first spotted on capgeek.com, the Ducks extended the contract of minor-league defenseman Sean Zimmerman on a one-year, two-way deal.
Zimmerman, who turned 24 in May, finished last season in Syracuse after arriving in the trade that brought enforcer Brian McGrattan to Anaheim from Boston for prospects Stefan Chaput and David Laliberte.
Zimmerman had no goals and three assists in 21 games with the Crunch, his third American Hockey League stop last season. He will make $525,000 in the NHL and $75,000 in the AHL.
