Stortini re-signs with Oilers

From TSN:

The Edmonton Oilers signed forwards Zack Stortini and Carl Corazzini to three and one-year contracts, respectively, Tuesday.

In his first full season with the Oilers, Stortini recorded 12 points (3-9-12) and 201 penalty minutes -- fifth in the league -- in 66 games in 2007-08.

"Zack had a very productive season last year and were looking for him to build from that. Hes an intimidating presence on the ice and is establishing himself as an important part of our hockey club," Vice-President of Hockey Operations Kevin Prendergast said.

Stortini was very effective during the second half of the 2007/08 and brings some size and physical presence to the Oilers' third/fourth lines.

Ballhype: hype it up!
