The Edmonton Oilers have signed free agency defenseman Bryan Allen to a 2 year contract reportedly worth $5 million per season.
The Oilers are happy to commit $10 million over the next 2 years to the veteran. Known for his solid defensive play, Allen's strength's lay in his ability to get in front of shots, making it easier for his goaltender to keep pucks away from the net. He is also a fairly physical checker.
Allen joins his 4th NHL squad in 2013 - having played with the Canucks, Panthers and Hurricanes.
Stay tuned for other signings, brought to you here as they occur!
