Thrashers re-sign Mellanby
The Atlanta Thrashers have re-signed veteran right winger Scott Mellanby to a one-year, $1-million contract.
Mellanby, 40, had 34 points and a plus-5 rating in 71 games for the Thrashers in 2005-2006.
A physical winger who has recorded 2416 career penalty minutes, Mellanby is a productive scorer as well with 352 goals and 452 assists in 1362 games in an NHL career that began in 1985-1986 with Philadelphia and has taken him to Edmonton, Florida, St. Louis and Atlanta.

hmm, he said he was going to retire after this season but i guess he changed his mind, fair price for him, this will mostlikley be his last season, hopefully the thrashers can make it into the playoffs

RE: Thrashers re-sign Mellanby
Well, he said he was thinking about retirement, somebody asked him after the last game of our season and he said he wasn't leaving (he mentioned Florida at one point if I remember right) but I didn't beleive it until now. Glad to see him back for at least one more year, hopefully we can finally clench a playoff spot because I'm almost certain this is his last year, (he hinted at that too) and it would be good to see him at least have a shot at the Cup.
