Tucker lands on feet in Colorado: The Colorado Avalanche signed former Maple Leafs goalie Andrew Raycroft and forward Darcy Tucker, who both had their contracts bought out by Toronto last week, on Tuesday. Raycroft signed a one-year deal on Tuesday, and Tucker agreed to a two-year contract. The Avalanche also signed Swedish forward Per Ledin to a one-year contract. (Updated 07/01/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Tucker, a noted agitator, had 18 goals and 16 assists in 74 games last season. Tucker's offensive production has declined the last two seasons since he posted a career-high 61 points in 2005-06. The move to Colorado is good for Tucker as he and Scott Parker will make a formidable set of enforcers. However, until his offensive production rises, Tucker is more of a No. 5 or No. 6 Fantasy forward heading into 2008-09. (Updated 07/01/2008).
