RealGM Staff Report - The Anaheim Ducks announced today that the National Hockey League (NHL) club has signed center Brendan Morrison to a one-year contract. Per club policy, no financial terms of the deal were disclosed.

?Brendan Morrison is a solid veteran with excellent foot speed,? said Ducks Executive Vice President/General Manager Brian Burke. ?He?s an intelligent hockey player and is a tremendous addition to our top six forward group.?

Morrison, 32, appeared in 39 contests with the Vancouver Canucks in 2007-08, collecting 9-16=25 points with 18 penalty minutes (PIM). He was sidelined for 43 games due to wrist and knee injuries.
