Brian Burke, President and GM of the Maple Leafs, announced Monday that the club has signed defenceman Mark Fraser to a one-year contract. Fraser, 25, split the 2011-12 AHL season between the Marlies and Syracuse Crunch, former affiliate of the Ducks. The defenceman helped lead the Marlies to the 2012 Calder Cup Final, posting three assists and 31 penalty minutes in 17 playoff games. Fraser was acquired by the Maple Leafs from the Ducks on February 27, 2012 in exchange for Dale Mitchell.
