Krischuk Headed Back To Sin City

Defenseman Jason Krischuk of Anchorage, who all but took last season off -- think he might have been finishing his college degree -- has signed to return to the Las Vegas Wranglers of the ECHL.

Krischuk, 29, the former Nebraska-Omaha and Colorado College blueliner, played the 2006-07 and 2007-08 seasons with the Wranglers, and also earned two games in the American Hockey League in the latter campaign.

He played four games last season in the Central Hockey League.
