The Edmonton Oilers have re-signed goaltender Yann Danis to a one-year contract. No details have been released but Danis won the Aldege "Baz" Bastien Memorial Award as the AHL's top netminder last season. Danis had a 2.13 GAA and .923 save percentage in 41 AHL games this season. He could be in the mix with the Oilers, especially if Nikolai Khabibulin or Devan Dubnyk has trouble in the upcoming season.

Yann Danis was selected as the AHL's Aldege "Baz" Bastien Memorial Award, which is given to the league's outstanding goaltender of the season. Danis had a 2.13 GAA and .923 save percentage in 41 AHL games this season. He is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent this summer. There's a chance that he'll land a one-way contract, but it seems more likely that he'll find a team that's willing to let him battle for the backup role in training camp.

Don't be surprised if the Oilers give Yann Danis a shot in goal should they move Nikolai Khabibulin in a trade. Khabibulin and Devan Dubnyk have both been inconsistent this season and Danis has been nothing short of sensational in the American Hockey League. Although he is 30, if Danis can even approach the 1.98 goals against average and .926 save percentage he posted with Oklahoma City this season in Edmonton, he could get a chance to play on a regular basis for the balance of the season. Keep an eye on this situation.

The Edmonton Oilers have called up Yann Danis. Danis is projected to serve as Devan Dubnyk's understudy while Nikolai Khabibulin deals with a groin injury. Danis has a 1.98 GAA and .926 save percentage in 33 AHL games.

Yann Danis has signed a one-year contract with the Edmonton Oilers. Danis had a 2.05 GAA and .923 save percentage in 12 games with the Devils in 2009-10. He'll probably start the 2011-12 season in the minors.
