Prospect Signing
According to CapGeek, it appears C Graham Black has signed a 3 year ELC with the Devils. It appears to be a two way deal ($65k AHL/$650K NHL cap hit split). Looks like he picked up a nice $75k/yr signing bonus. While he had a monster season in the WHL (34-63-97 in 69 games) as one of the oldest players in the league, it is important to note that he had to overcome issues resulting from his battle with Graves' disease over the years so he is a bit of a special case. 

AHL 4/16
Albany defeated Portland 3-2 (SO). Scoring for the Devils was Boucher (Tedenby, K. Zajac) and Kelly (K. Zajac, Merrill). Matteau and Sislo scored in the shootout. Kinkaid stopped 20 of 22 shots and 4 of 5 attempts in the shootout. Albany outshot Portland 30-22 and went 0/2 on the PP and 2/3 on the PK. Here is the gamesheet.

Stats:
Reid Boucher LW: 55 GP 22-15-37, -3, 10 PIM, 144 Shots
Kelly Zajac C: 67 GP 12-32-44, +8, 4 PIM, 83 Shots
Jon Merrill D: 15 GP 2-8-10, -1, 0 PIM, 21 Shots
Keith Kinkaid G: 43 GP 24-13-5, 2.29 GAA, .912 SV%, 4 SO
