NASHVILLE, Tenn. (CP) - The Nashville Predators re-signed forward Scott Hartnell and signed free-agent defenceman Andreas Lilja on Monday.

Hartnell, 22, of Lloydminster, Alta., will get slightly more than $1.3 million US in his fifth season with the NHL club after earning nearly $1.2 million last season when he was second on the team in goals with a career-high 18 despite missing 23 games due to injury.

Lilja, 29, a six-foot-three Swedish defenceman, was with the Florida Panthers before becoming an unrestricted free agent July 1. He signed for $750,000 US after making $600,000 last season.

Also re-signing were goalie Brian Finley of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., and American defenceman Andrew Hutchinson, both of whom helped Milwaukee win the AHL's Calder Cup.

they want to to do something to come again into the playoffs next year!!!
good signs!!
