Sharks re-sign defenseman Huskins

Thursday, 07.09.2009 / 1:41 PM / 2009 NHL Offseason News
San Jose Sharks Executive Vice President and General Manager Doug Wilson announced today that the team has re-signed Group III unrestricted free agent defenseman Kent Huskins to a two-year contract. In keeping with club policy, financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
 
Huskins, 30, recently finished his third NHL season in 2008-09.  He recorded six points (two goals, four assists) in 33 games with Anaheim but missed most of the season due to a broken foot.  He was traded to San Jose on March 4, 2009, along with forward Travis Moen, in exchange for prospects Timo Pielmeier and Nick Bonino as well as a conditional draft selection.
 
“Kent played an important role on a Stanley Cup winning team and knows what it takes to win,” said Wilson.  “He is a player that can play in all situations and does whatever is necessary to get the job done on this ice.”
 
In 142 NHL games with Anaheim, the six-foot-four, 205-pound defenseman has posted 28 points (six goals, 22 assists) and tallied 100 penalty minutes. He is a plus-26 in his career. In 27 Stanley Cup Playoff games, he has recorded two assists and is a plus-13. He was a member of Anaheim’s 2007 Stanley Cup-winning team, playing in all 21 playoff and Cup Final games.
