Some moves and some updates from the Calgary Flames front. The NHL Draft went down to the wire, even before it began, with a rumored 3-way trade with Columbus, Edmonton, and Calgary. Nothin materialized and Calgary stuck with the #6 pick, and by some miracle thanks to Vancouver (again), managed to land RW (although a left-shot) Matthew Tkachuck.
Here’s how the other rounds unraveled.
MATTHEW TKACHUK (LW)
Drafted: 1st round (6th overall)
HT: 6’1” WT: 202 lbs.
Shoots: Left
TYLER PARSONS (G)
Drafted: 2nd round (54th overall)
HT: 6’1” WT: 185 lbs.
