VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – The Vancouver Canucks have re-signed goaltender Eddie Lack.

The 24-year-old had 21 wins in 46 games with the Canucks’ farm team, the Chicago Wolves.

Lack, who was signed as a free agent in 2010, receives a two-year contract that will be a two-way deal in the first year, earning $650,000 at the NHL level and $85,000 in the AHL.

The Norrtalje, Sweden native is expected to battle for the Canucks’ backup spot and could be the favourite should Vancouver deal Roberto Luongo to another team.
