Plekanec Avoids Arbitration

The Canadiens should have been pleased to avoid salary arbitration with Tomas Plekanec, as he signed a 1-year deal on Tuesday that was worth $2.75 million. Once this new deal is completed next summer, Plekanec will qualify for unrestricted free agency.

In 80 games played in 2009, Plekanec finished with 20 goals and 19 assists, ranking him 219th among all players in pool points, 162nd among forwards.
