Flames Cuts - September 26th, 2001
Five more players were assigned on Wednesday, moving the Flames roster much closer to the team that will take the ice to open the season on October 3rd against Edmonton.
Further additions to Saint John include goaltender Levente Szuper, defencemen Micki Dupont and Steve Montador, plus forward Dwayne Hay.
Defenceman Dallas Eakins was assigned to the Chicago Wolves in a player loan agreement.
The moves today leave the Flames with four goaltenders in camp, including Kelly Hrudey who is in town filming a documentary for Hockey Night in Canada. On the blueline nine players remain, but that number includes the injured Brad Werenka. With eight players left, expect one more cut to the defence core, likely Alan Letang. Up front 18 players remain vying for 14 available spots. Injuries to Jeff Shantz and Oleg Saprykin leave only two possible cuts to come to start the season. Chuck Kobasew, the Flames first pick in the 2001 draft still remains in camp.
