Nick Boynton ... Anaheim Duck?

As far as I can see, there has been no news or official release that free agent defenseman Nick Boynton has signed a contract with the Anaheim Ducks. At least, not as of this morning, July 9, 2009.

That's not stopping his name from appearing on the team's roster on its official Web site.



So, did somebody let the cat out of the bag a bit early, or is it simply a random mistake on the Web? We've reached out to the Anaheim Ducks for comment and are awaiting clarification.

UPDATE: Still no word from the Ducks -- or anybody, for that matter -- but the NHLPA's website has Boynton listed as a member of the Ducks, and his 2009-10 salary as $1.5 million. Interesting that there has been no official news or report on this. Boynton's a good enough player that it should at least get some mention from somebody when he signs.

UPDATE No. 2: And it's official, Nick Boynton is a member of the Anaheim Ducks.
