VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- The Vancouver Canucks re-signed unrestricted free agent Brad May to a $2 million, two-year contract Friday.
The physical winger was unable to reach agreement with the Canucks after the season ended and became a free agent July 1. May will be paid $1.1 million next season and $900,000 in 2004-05.
"There's no doubt that getting back to Vancouver at the end of last season was a positive in my hockey career and I'm very happy, May said.
May had three goals, four assists and 42 penalty minutes in 23 games with Phoenix and Vancouver last season. He played in all 14 playoff games with the Canucks, recording 15 penalty minutes.
"I know exactly what my role will be again,'' May said. "I'm an energy guy, I can change the game in one shift.
"There's no question I am a role player but I have a lot to give.''
