"The Ottawa Senators have signed tough guy Zenon Konopka to a one-year contract worth $700,000.

Konopka spent last season with the New York Islanders and finished second in the league in fighting majors with 25, which made up a good portion of his 307 penalty minutes.

The native of Niagara Falls, Ontario posted two goals and seven assists over 82 games in 2010-11 and has eight goals and 14 assist to go with 684 PIMs since entering the NHL in 2005-06."
