Great AHLer, could be a decent callup.

This sucks as a Flames fan. Grant is a gamer and will be a great 4th liner at the very least.

 

[Snakepit]

iirc correctly, lead the AHL in points last year until he broke his jaw.

Good guy to have in the organization on a two way contract

Interesting signing considering Tim Murray had a hand in drafting him in Ottawa.

I remember him looking decent as a call up in Ottawa a few years back. Probably more of an AHL signing, but depending on the makeup of BUFs roster, seems like a guy who might be able to push for an NHL spot on the right team/circumstance.

 

[Yung Rotini]

Damn.

 

[Elvs]

He's good in the faceoff circle IIRC.

 

[Sensinitis]

Good pickup. Can be a solid 4th line center and great PKer.

 

[MakeCgyGreatAgain]

We loved him for the Flames. He got injured and that hurt his season. He could play in the NHL this year if he's healthy.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

That sucks! I was hoping the Flames would give him a NHL roster spot

 

[Bouma Fett*]

Yup. Beast in the AHL, looked like a good bottom line guy.

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Reminds me of Klinkhammer.

Sticks around the AHL/NHL long enough to round out his game and ends up playing more NHL games than the average 1st rounder.

No room for him on the Flames roster. Great AHL guy, could be a decent 4th liner. Strong on faceoffs. His few games in the NHL were nothing special.
