VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 4 (UPI) -- The Vancouver Canucks have signed unrestricted free agent left wing Mats Lindgren.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Lindgren, 28, is entering his seventh season, and joining his third team. He attended Vancouver's training camp on a tryout contract, and played in two preseason games before being sent to Manitoba of the American Hockey League, where he played four games.
In 333 career games, Lindgren has 49 goals and 114 points. He was with the New York Islanders for three seasons after being acquired from the Edmonton Oilers in March of 1999, and had three goals and 15 points in his final season with the Islanders.
The signing of Lindgren comes two days after Vancouver acquired defenseman Marek Malik and left wing Darren Langdon from the Carolina Hurricanes for center Harold Druken and left wing Jan Hlavac.
