ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Forward Rickard Rakell, who set career highs in goals and assists last season, has signed a six-year extension with the Anaheim Ducks, the team announced Friday.A source told ESPNs Pierre LeBrun that the deal is worth an average of $3.8 million per season.Rakell, the 30th overall pick of the 2011 NHL entry draft, led the Ducks with seven game-winning goals last season. He finished with 20 goals and 23 assists in 71 games.The restricted free agent didnt participate in training camp while technically holding out for a new deal, although he would have been unable to play anyway after surgery last month related to his appendectomy.The surgery kept Rakell out of the World Cup of Hockey, but the 23-year-old is working out again in Sweden with hopes of returning to hockey before the end of October. He is expected to play on one of the Ducks top two lines.I think its something we both agreed was common ground for the two of us, Ducks general manager Bob Murray said. The injury held us up a little bit. We wanted to be totally comfortable Ricky was going to be OK going forward. Hes over 200 pounds right now and hes skating.Rakells contract, which runs through the 2021-22 season, absorbs two potential seasons of unrestricted free agency.With Rakells deal complete, Murray can turn his full attention to re-signing defenseman Hampus Lindholm, Rakells fellow restricted free agent. Lindholm is still at home in Sweden, depriving the Ducks of an elite, young blueliner as they begin their first season under returning coach Randy Carlyle.Murray had no progress to report on negotiations with Lindholms representatives, but Murray is speaking with them frequently.Theres lots of different things that could happen with Hampus, Murray said. Were trying hard to get that accomplished. Both sides are talking. We have no idea what that deal is going to be.Murray said he wouldnt necessarily need to trade another player to create room on his limited payroll for Lindholm. Defenseman Cam Fowler has been widely mentioned in trade rumors.Murray is less optimistic about the health of defenseman Simon Despres, who left their season opener at Dallas on Thursday night with an unspecified upper-body injury.Despres missed large stretches of last season following a concussion, and Murray clearly is concerned about a possible reoccurrence of symptoms. Despres didnt absorb any major hits before leaving in the second period.He was not feeling good last night, Murray said. Were trying to figure out whats going on with him. He had those problems last year. Something is wrong here, and weve got to get to the bottom of it.After losing their season opener, the Ducks play at Pittsburgh on Saturday, continuing their five-game East Coast road trip before their home opener against Vancouver on Oct. 23.Anaheim also assigned forward Joseph Cramarossa to its AHL affiliate in San Diego on Friday, a day after the Ducks claimed veteran forward Emerson Etem on waivers from Vancouver.The Associated Press also contributed to this story.?

Luis Suarezs double powered Liverpool to a 4-0 victory over Fulham, and Southampton easily overcame Hull 4-1 to continue the south coast clubs impressive start to the season. Liverpool and Southampton sent Chelsea down to fourth place as the west London club was held to 2-2 at home. Black Broncos Jerseys .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have placed centre Cody Hodgson on injured reserve and recalled two players from their AHL affiliate in Rochester. http://www.officialbroncosnflauthenticshop.com/ . With the first unit struggling of late and Amir Johnson - one of the teams iron men - hobbling on an injured right ankle, Patterson knew he could get the nod in a challenging matchup against one of the leagues up and coming players at his position. Troy Fumagalli Stitched Jersey .R. Smith realized how easily basketball can be taken from him, and he wasnt going to take his place in the NBA for granted anymore. Courtland Sutton Stitched Jersey . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. The Wallabies expect David Pocock to be available to overcome a concussion to face Scotland this weekend, while injured hooker James Hanson could be back in training next week.Pocock sent a brief shock through the Australian camp when he was forced out of Saturdays win over Wales with concussion.The powerful 28-year-old - who was started at blindside flanker against Wales, for the first time in his career - was understood to have been furious at being benched by the match doctor, with Cheika admitting he was given a spray by his star forward over the substitution.The Wallabies will adhere to all the head injury assessment protocols but remain confident hell be able to line up at Murrayfield for Saturdays second leg of the Spring Tour - and the next hurdle to clear towards winning the grand slam.Im confident that hell be playing, Cheika said on Monday.There were fears Hansons tour could be over after he underwent surgery on a fractured jaw last week, which allowed Waratahs youngster Tolu Latu tto face Wales and become the Wallabies 12th debutant this year.ddddddddddddHowever, its hoped Hanson, after having four plates inserted into his face last week, will resume training next week with a view of being available for the tour-ending clash with England on December 3, or potentially the crucial showdown with Ireland the week before.(Hansons) massive (swollen) jaw is starting to reduce a little bit, every day its getting smaller and smaller, Cheika said.The surgeons gave quite a bright picture for the next few weeks ... Obviously hes not going to be in line for anything this week and well see how he deals with that and then from there well make some decisions.Ideally hes going to stay with us all this week. Well have a look and see what his comeback is like and if we feel like hes an option to play in the last few games, and then well make a call from there.
