Die Flames signen Enforcer McGrattan

The Calgary Flames have added an element of toughness on Saturday as the team announced the signing of free agent forward Brian McGrattan.  Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

One of the most feared 'heavyweights' in professional hockey, the 29-year old Hamilton native earned 22 penalty minutes in just five games with the Phoenix Coyotes last season.

Originally selected in the fourth round, 104th overall, by the Los Angeles Kings in the 1999 NHL Entry draft, McGrattan broke into the league with the Ottawa Senators in the 2005-06 season.

In 148 career games, McGrattan has two goals, eight assists and 309 minutes in penalties.

Jetzt muss Darryl doch nicht selber den Goon machen

Flames signen Germyn und Grantham

Calgary Flames General Manager Darryl Sutter announced today the signing of forwards Carsen Germyn and Ryley Grantham.

Germyn war 2. bester Scorer der QC Flames letztes Jahr. Grantham ist ein junger tough guy der mit Backlund im Memorial-Cup Endspiel stand mit den Kelowna Rocktes. Günstiger Enforcer aus der "eigenen Jugend"....

Grantham, a 6'4" native of Hanna, AB, finished last season with a WHL championship as a member of the Kelowna Rockets. In 22 post season games, en-route to a Memorial Cup Final appearance, Grantham recorded 4 goals and an assist. Originally drafted by the Flames in the 6th round (168th overall) of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft, Grantham played three seasons with the Moose Jaw Warriors before a late season trade in 2009 brought him to Kelowna and a successful run at the Ed Chynoweth Trophy.

Germyn, a native of Campbell River, British Columbia, was first in assists (47) and second in scoring (60 points) with Quad City Flames (AHL) last season. Germyn is entering his seventh season of professional hockey and fifth with the Flames. Germyn has played for both the Kelowna Rockets and Red Deer Rebels of the WHL.

Nachtrag:

2Way, 2Jahre, 500tsd pro Jahr 

[Flames1848]

Lundmark bleibt bei den Flames

Auch Jamie Lundmark bleibt (wie von mir gehofft) bei den Flames. Er war eine Stütze in QC und seinen Job als Call Up hat er mMn sehr gut gemacht. Er hat einen 1 Jahres 2 Wege Vertrag für 600Tsd $. Lundmark zu noch besseren Konditionen als letztes Jahr, sehr gut Darryl

Peters verlässt Cgy Richtung Dallas

Warren Peters hat bei den Stars einen 1 Jahres Vertrag unterschrieben (2 Way). War letztes Jahr gar kein schlechter Call-Up wie ich finde......

HC des Kelly Cup Siegers wird AC in Abbotsford

The Abbotsford Heat have found Jim Playfair's right-hand men.

Jared Bednar and Steve O'Rourke were hired on Canada Day to serve as assistant coaches with the local American Hockey League franchise. They will work alongside Playfair, who was named head coach of the Heat in early June.

Bednar, a Humboldt, Sask. product, has spent the past two seasons as head coach of the ECHL's South Carolina Stingrays. In 2008-09, he piloted the Stingrays to the Kelly Cup, emblematic of the ECHL championship.

Wieder ein guter Move für die Heat

Kronwall hat in den AHL Finals gute Spiele gemacht. Bin gespannt welchen Platz Cookson unter den AC´s einnimmt

Signings für Abbotsford

CALGARY - The Calgary Flames have signed centre Garth Murray and minor-league forward Riley Armstrong.

Murray, from Regina, has eight goals and two assists in 116 career NHL games with Phoenix, Florida, Montreal and the New York Rangers.

The 27-year-old compiled 11 goals and 10 assists in 64 games for the San Antonio Rampage last season and also played 10 games with the parent club in Phoenix. Murray, who is six foot two and 215 pounds, was the 79th pick of the New York Rangers in the 2001 draft.

Saskatoon native Armstrong spent the last five seasons playing in the San Jose Sharks minor-league system and has appeared in two NHL games. The 25-year-old had 25 goals, 17 assists and 101 penalty minutes in 71 games for Worcester last season.

Gratulation an die Flames, Top-Coach und nun noch Bouwmeester, ich hoffe next season läufts endlich in den Playoffs.

Und... immer gut, wenn kanadische Starspieler heimkommen 

[Sabres90]

Das signing ist für die Flames sicher gut, aber damit ist der Cap wieder ordentlich voll ! Wobei, Jokinen noch weg...

[Flames1848]

Calgary Flames general manager Darryl Sutter made the most of his opportunity to negotiate with Jay Bouwmeester.

The defenceman avoided unrestricted free agency by agreeing to a five-year deal worth $6.68 million per year against the salary cap on Tuesday night.

Phaneuf, Regehr, Bouwmeester, Sarich, das hört sich doch mal gut an 

[Flames1848]

Flames GM Darryl Sutter handed qualifying offers to restricted free agents Dustin Boyd and Kris Chucko but didn't give them to fellow forwards Adam Cracknell and Aki Seitsonen, meaning they are free to sign with any club.

Ausserdem sind heute weitere Gespräche mit JayBo

[Sabres90]

Die Flames schicken Jim Vandermeer in die Wüste und erhalten dafür Brandon Prust.
