The Elmira Jackals have signed former Buffalo Sabres captain and longtime NHL defenseman Craig Rivet to a standard player contract, the team announced on Monday. Rivet is expected to be in the Jackals' lineup on Friday night at First Arena when they host the Trenton Titans in the 2011-2012 season opener.
Certainly no fantasy hockey value in the ECHL. Hopefully the former captain works hard and gets back into the NHL.
