The Calgary Flames made headlines recently by signing defenceman Axel Hurtig to a three-year entry-level contract. Hurtig, who was selected in the seventh round of the 2023 NHL Draft, previously served as the captain of the Calgary Hitmen.

This move reflects the Flames' continued commitment to developing young talent within their organization. Additionally, the Flames are preparing for an important matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights as they aim to end a three-game road losing streak.

This game is crucial for Calgary as they navigate the competitive Pacific Division, looking to improve their standings and secure a playoff spot.
