Jim Benning announced Monday afternoon the club re-signed the two rookie forwards to cheap, short-term deals.
The Vancouver Canucks re-signed forward Ronalds Kenins to a one-year, one-way contract on Monday afternoon. The 25-year-old Latvian impressed fans and management with his energetic play on the fourth line during a call-up during the regular season and his stay was extended for the rest of the season.
Kenins reportedly will make $575,000 next season, which is slightly above the league minimum.
Benning on Kenins: "We feel he's ready to be a full-time NHL player & we're looking forward to him being part of our team next year #Canucks
