07/30/2010 - Calgary, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Calgary Flames signed defenseman Ian White to a one-year contract on Friday.

White was part of the blockbuster deal at last season's trade deadline that saw blueliner Dion Phaneuf heading from Calgary to Toronto. The 26-year-old tallied four goals and eight assists in 27 games after joining the Flames and had 13 goals with 25 helpers in a combined 83 games in 2009-10.

Over his five seasons in the NHL, White has totaled 32 goals and 85 assists with a plus-15 rating and 202 penalty minutes in 323 games.

A sixth-round pick (191st overall) of Toronto in the 2002 draft, he was scheduled to go to arbitration on Friday.
