I just came across this story over on hockeyfights.com, apparently former Fighting Sioux hockey player Landon Wilson is going to get one more chance to play in the NHL as the Dallas Stars have signed him to a two way contract.

The Stars signed four minor leaguers today, including Landon Wilson. The son of Stars associate coach Rick Wilson, Landon, 33, left the game because of a serious eye injury. He has been playing in Europe the last four seasons, and co-GM Les Jackson said they are bringing him as a potential NHL player and a guy they would like to keep in the organization for a while. He will probably be a Mike Keane type in Austin for a few years and then try to work his way into coaching.

Wilson, 33, has played the last four seasons in Europe, including the 2006-07 and 2007-08 campaigns with HC Lugano in the Swiss Elite League. In 30 games with Lugano last season, Wilson collected 20 points (13 goals, 7 assists) and 67 penalty minutes, and the previous season, he notched 31 points (20 goals, 11 assists) and 67 PIM.

Landon Wilson's NHL numbers: he has played in 348 games scoring 51 goals, and adding 60 assists for a career points total: 111 points. Landon Wilson has also spent 331 minutes in the sin bin.
