NHL free agent signings for July 22, 2008

Look for my rumor report sometime later this week.

The Anaheim Ducks have signed left wing Ryan Donally to a two-year contract and forwards Josh Green and Troy Bodie to one-year contracts. The Ducks also signed their first round draft pick in the 2007 NHL Entry draft, Logan MacMillan to a three-year, entry-level contract.

The New York Rangers have agreed to terms with forward Hugh Jessiman.

The Philadelphia Flyers have signed defenseman Kevin Marshall.

The San Jose Sharks have re-signed left wing Riley Armstrong and right wing Mike Morris to one-year contracts. The Sharks also signed goaltenders Tyson Sexsmith and Timo Pielmeier to three-year contracts.

The Phoenix Coyotes have re-signed forward Daniel Carcillo to a two-year contract.
