Coyotes Ink D Aucoin

POSTED: 11:05 am MST July 2, 2009

(Sports Network) - The Phoenix Coyotes brought in veteran defenseman Adrian Aucoin on a one-year contract Thursday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed per team policy.

Aucoin, whose departure from Calgary was eased by the signing of Jay Bouwmeester on Wednesday, posted 10 goals and 34 points over 81 games for the Flames a season ago.

"We are excited to add Adrian Aucoin to our team," said Coyotes general manager Don Maloney. "He is a defenseman who played over 22 minutes per game in Calgary last season. He is an intelligent puck-moving defenseman who will help improve our power play and bring leadership to our locker room."

The 35-year-old has racked up 108 goals, 336 points and 627 penalty minutes over 851 games in 14 seasons with the Canucks, Lightning, Islanders, Blackhawks and Flames.
