The Phoenix Coyotes announced Sunday that they have signed
right
wing David Moss to a two-year contract.
“David, a former 20-goal scorer, is a big, versatile
player who will
provide secondary scoring and back-up depth at our center
position,”
General Manager Don Maloney told Phoenixcoyotes.com. “Our
Associate Coach, Jim Playfair, coached David in Calgary
and believes
he
will be an excellent addition for us. We are pleased to
add him to our
roster.”
The 6-foot-4, 207 pound Moss recorded two goals and nine
points
last
season in 32 games with the Calgary Flames in an injury-
shortened
season.
The 30-year-old had spent his entire career with the
Flames before
signing with the Coyotes and played in 317 regular season
games.
Moss collected career highs in goals (20), assists (19)
and points (39)
during the 2008-09 season.
Moss was selected by the Calgary Flames in the seventh
round
(220th
overall) in the 2001 Entry Draft.
The Coyotes also announced that they have signed goaltender Chad Johnson
to
a one-year deal.
Last season Johnson averaged a 2.49 goals against average
and a
.919 save percentage in 49 games with the Connecticut
Whale, AHL
affiliate to the New York Rangers.
