Flames Cuts - September 19th, 2001
The Calgary Flames made their first cuts of the 2001 training camp, cutting 14 players from their camp roster of 59.
As is often the case with the first round of cuts by an NHL team, there was little surprise in the announcement made on Wednesday.
Players returning to their junior club include Wade Davis and Brent Krahn to the Calgary Hitmen, Travis Moen to the Kelowna Rockets, and Jarret Stoll to the Kootenay Ice. Jarret Stoll had a solid camp, playing on a line with Chuck Kobasew in the 3-1 victory over Minnesota last night, but was coming off wrist surgery this summer.
The Saint John Flames also recieves some players including; Garrett Bembridge (RW), Jeff Mitchell (C/RW), David Boychuk (D), Jason Morgan (C), Kurtis Foster (D), Roman Rozakov (D), Dave Huntzicker (D), Shaun Sutter (C), and Shawn Mather (C). Only Shaun Sutter had seen time in Saint John last season.
Camp invitee Andrew Bogle was released out right.
The moves leave 45 players still in camp, 22 above the final roster of 23 that will open the season agains the Edmonton Oilers on October 3rd.
