So it’s official. Dion Phaneuf is no longer a member of the Calgary Flames. The rumours that have been circulating for the last week came true today as Dion was shipped to the Toronto Maple Leafs with Freddie Sjostrom and Keith Aulie in exchange for Matt Stajan, Niklas Hagman, Jamal Mayers and Ian White. In [...]
One-time Flames forward Todd Bertuzzi has signed a one-year, $1.5M deal with the Detroit Red Wings. He had indicated that he wanted to return to Calgary, but Darryl Sutter made it clear that he should look elsewhere. Last season Bertuzzi was inconsistent, but still put up his best numbers since 05-06, his last season in [...]
A couple weeks ago, I wrote about rumours that were circulating about whether Alex Tanguay would re-sign with the Calgary Flames. As I said in my original post I don’t believe the rumours and I really don’t think he’ll end up in a Flames uniform next season. But nonetheless, people are still talking. Oh, we [...]
The Calgary Flames have freed up some necessary cap space by trading forward Wayne Primeau to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for defenceman Anton Stralman and forward Colin Stuart.

Chucko played for the AHL Quad City Flames last season. You can expect him to play the majority of the time in Abbotsford this season, except for [...]
Oh Crap! Say it ain’t so, Joe! (or Darryl, or Brent, or even Brett!) There is a rumour floating around that the Flames are trying to re-sign Alex Tanguay, who spent 2 so-so years with the Flames in 06-07 and 07-08 . I am not a Tanguay lover by any stretch of the imagination and [...]
Though no details of the contracts were released, Calgary Flames GM Darryl Sutter announced today that the Flames have signed T.J. Brodie, Greg Nemisz and Keith Seabrook. These will certainly be two-way contracts, allowing the players to move between the Flames and their AHL team in Abbotsford.
Though some would argue that they don’t really need an enforcer, The Calgary Flames have signed tough-guy Brian McGrattan to a 1-year, $550,000 contract. I was reading through the comments on the article on TSN.ca about his signing, and I actually laughed out loud when I read this one by C4L: “Thank God. Remember in [...]

The Calgary Flames added another player to their roster by signing free agent winger Fredrik Sjostrom to a 2 year deal worth $1.5M. Sjostrom was beloved by NY Rangers fans where he played for the last 2 years. He is a solid 4th liner who can play on the penalty killing unit.
