No, he is an UFA.
I believe the reason why Morency just have gotten a camp invitation and not a contract is probably that he had knee-surgery after the season. I guess he'll sign if fit by camp

wolves look weak again.
last year is was valabik, desbiens, lavallee, oystrick and deveaux.
the only one for sure expected back this year is oystrick and maybe lavallee if he doesnt make the thrashers on the 4th line. valabik is pretty much all but gone to atlanta this year unless he has a crappy training camp.

If you mean by diving as soon as anyone is within 10 feet of him, then you can include Deveaux on your list

But Deveaux is 6' 4" 220. No reason a man that big should fall over so easily

[Manimal]

I've added Flinn with Hamilton and Arsene with Hershey even though Dean only had one fight last year. It was an injury-riddled season and he had eleven the year before so we can hope he'll be back in old form

[ValJames]

I'd add Stefan Meyer for the Amerks and possibly Mike Duco as well.

Meyer doesn't fight enough but Duco I missed.
I set the line at five FMs last year otherwise I would have to post half the teams rosters in some cases. During last season I added guys after their third FM

[SnowballIsChamp]

Hopefully Pisellini makes the Phantoms this season.

[chilly666]

may have to add mike hoffman to the wolves if the rumored signing goes through

[Manimal]

I read on some forum that Bingo has Chaz Johnson under contract so I'll put him in.
Also added Adam Henrich to the Pens

[caps05]

Manimal, you can add Tyson Strachan to Peoria. He just signed today, and he had 5 AHL and 6 ECHL fights last year.

[itsJ.Millertime]

Manimal, I dont know if Jake Taylor meets your criteria for the list but he signed with Springfield.

[CatatonicMoose]

I really hope Cormier gets a shot with San Antonio this year, he impressed in an injury-ruined season in the CHL last year and he has pretty good hockey sense and hands for a fighter. Only drawback is that he is a little slow but he's got decent skills for a fighter.

And Wes McSnipes - Yes there is need for a new thread on this. Manimal does it every year and his lists for the various leagues are very much appreciated by many members. It's not a general discussion as much as breaking down who will possibly be on each team.
