VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Canucks have re-signed defenceman Yannick Weber to a one-year deal.

Weber will reportedly make US$1.5 million next season.

The 26-year-old remains on the Canucks' blue line, which is expected to be younger after the club traded Kevin Bieksa to Anaheim.

"Excited to spend another year with the @VanCanucks," Weber tweeted. "Thank you to the fans and organization for the support."

Weber has 63 points in 229 NHL games with the Canucks and Montreal Canadiens.
