Penguins sign Bayda - 9-28-09

The Penguins have signed Ryan Bayda (above) to a one-year two-way contract. Bayda was in camp on a tryout basis. Terms of the deal were not available.

EN Says: Bayda brings a nice set of skills for a fourth-line forward. He'll mix it up along the boards and in front of the net, go hard on the forecheck and isn't afaid to drop the gloves. He can chip in the occasional goal, but he's nothing more than a fourth-liner.
