Henry Scheuer '69 phoned in and told us that the Montreal Canadiens announced the signing of Joé Juneau '91 to a three year contract. Juneau is originally from Pont Rouge, Quebec, a suburb of Quebec City. He was an All-American at Rensselaer, candidate for the Hobey Baker award in 1991, graduated with a degree in Aeronautical Engineering, and played for Canada in the 1992 Winter Olympics. This past season, Joé played with the Phoenix Coyotes of the National Hockey League. He has also played for the Ottawa Senators, Buffalo Sabres, Washington Capitals, and Boston Bruins.

Update: jpcloninger96 points out (correctly) that Montreal spells their team name "Canadiens" more often than "Canadians". This is the spelling used in French. Also, a subsequent Associated Press story values Juneau's contract at $1.8 million per year.
