Eddie Lack Signs 2 Year Extension with the Canucks

Canucks backup goaltender Eddie Lack has re-upped in Vancouver for the next 2 seasons.  He signed a 2 year contract worth 2.3 million dollars - his cap hit will be 1.15 million dollars.  Lack signed as a free agent with the Canucks back in 2010.

Lack made his Canucks debut on October 6, 2013 against the Calgary Flames where he managed to pick up a victory.  Lack has appeared in 5 games this season, registering a 2.41 goals against average and .911 save percent.

Before his debut in the NHL, he played the past 3 seasons in the AHL for the Manitoba Moose and Chicago Wolves.

Analysis:
I like this signing by the Vancouver Canucks.  I feel the money and term are both acceptable and he will provide a solid backup presence to starter Roberto Luongo.  The Canucks might have a Schneider 2.0 somewhere down the road if he lives up to the AHL hype.  The Canucks are very deep in the nets throughout the whole organization.
