Flames Cuts - September 20th, 2001
Following the Flames 3-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday, on Thursday the Flames announced a signing and seven more player assignments.
Joining the nine players sent to Saint John of the AHL yesterday are; Jason Botterill (LW), Blair Betts (C), Rob Murray (C), Dany Sabourin (G) and defencemen Burke Henry, Mike Martin, and Rick Mrozik.
The cuts move the Flames camp roster from 45 to 38 (including Jeff Shantz and Brad Werenka on the injured reserve list).
Flames Sign Krahn
The Calgary Flames announced Brent Krahn of the Calgary Hitmen, the team's first round selection from the 2000 entry draft, has come to contractual terms with the team.
"Brent was a part of our future upon being drafted," said Button. "Signing him allows him to focus his full efforts on being successful in his pursuit of an NHL career with the Calgary Flames."
If Krahn wasn't signed by June of 2002 he would have re-entered the draft and could have been selected by another organization.
