Red Wings Add Andy Delmore; Re-Sign Jason Williams and Darryl Bootland
Tuesday, Aug. 16th, 2005
The Red Wings added a seventh member to their blueline after inking defenseman Andy Delmore to a one-year contract on Tuesday. Detroit also re-signed right winger Darryl Bootland and announced that Jason Williams accepted his one year qualifying offer.
Delmore (28, 6-1, 200) has seven seasons of NHL experience, totaling 276 games, 43 goals and 58 assists for 101 points and 103 penalty minutes.
The LaSalle, Ontario native entered the NHL as an undrafted free agent with Philadelphia in 1998-99. He spent three seasons with the Flyers followed by two years in Nashville and one season in Buffalo.
Delmore notched 14 points in 66 games for the Flyers in the 2000-01 regular season, but it would be the Stanley Cup Playoffs where he etched himself into hockey's record books. A hat trick against the Pittsburgh Penguins on May 7, 2000, made him the first rookie defenseman in NHL history to record two multi-goal games in the same playoff year.
Delmore spent the 2004-05 season in Germany where he tallied seven goals and 26 assists for 23 points in 50 games for Adler-Mannheim.
Williams signed as a free agent with Detroit in September of 2000 and has logged time with both the Red Wings and their AHL affiliates over the past four years.
He appeared in a career-high 49 NHL contests in 2003-04 and has totaled 95 career NHL games, scoring 17 goals and 15 assists for 32 points.
The London, Ontario native has 14 playoff games to his credit, including nine during the Wings 2002 Stanley Cup Championship.
In 2004-05, Williams led Assat Pori in scoring and finished 11th in the Finnish League with 43 points in 43 games (26-17--43).
Bootland, 23, played most of the last three seasons with the Griffins, totaling 53 points (27-26-53) and 552 penalty minutes in 148 games. His 552 PIM rank fourth all time on the club, while his eight game-winning goals tie for eighth.
Last season, the Toronto native tied for sixth on Grand Rapids with 34 points (14-20-34) in 78 appearances. He paced the Griffins with 336 PIM and six game-winners, and his plus-five rating tied for second among the team's forwards. Bootland's 78 minors and 336 PIM ranked first and fourth, respectively, in the AHL.
Bootland also tied for the team lead with 175 PIM in 2003-04, the same season in which he made his 22-game NHL debut with the Red Wings. He originally signed with Detroit as a free agent on July 25, 2002.
