Via the tweeter: @nhlflames .@cortexbusiness Transaction Alert: The #Flames have signed forward Glenn Gawdin to a three-year entry-level contract.
What's so exciting about this you ask? Other than the fact that he's torching the WHL this season with 40 pts in 18 GP (though he's a 20 yo and 2 excellent linemates), the JGHL Flames were slightly ahead of the parallel universe NHL Flames as we drafted him in 2015, whereas the Blues drafted him in the 4th rnd of the NHL draft (think we got him in the 5th) that year, but didn't sign him. The Flames had him at camp this offseason as a tryout before signing him just now.
As you were. We now return to regularly scheduled programming.
(Players with the letter "G" seem safe for now on the Flames squad as well as prospects [see previous Flames post], though "G"s [Gardiner & Guentzel] fall under the Jake category and thus are not safe. Very confusing GM concepts here in Calgary I know. Getzlaf and Gabriel, as well as Greg [McKegg], Gustav can rest easy.l

A lot going on in Calgary right now with figuring out how management is keeping their players. Very exciting stuff to watch as an outsider though...
