David Rittich and Sam Bennett among Flames filing for salary arbitration
The NHLPA released the list of players filing for salary arbitration on Friday afternoon. Four Calgary Flames players elected to file for arbitration, headlined by goaltender David Rittich and forward Sam Bennett.
Four members of the #Flames have filed for salary arbitration: David Rittich, Sam Bennett, Ryan Lomberg, and Rinat Valiev.
With players filing for arb, Calgary is now eligible for the NHL’s second buyout window in August.

The only Flames’ restricted free agent that didn’t file for salary arbitration was Spencer Foo, as he’s signed in the KHL for the next two seasons so there wouldn’t be much of a point.
