The last day for the Calgary Flames to sign Ryan Francis (or not) has arrived

The off-season is a time full of deadlines and decision points, and one such date is upon the Calgary Flames. June 1 is the deadline for the Flames to sign (or not sign) 2020 fifth-round selection Ryan Francis. If he’s not signed by 3 p.m. MT, the Flames lose his rights.

There’s a case to be made to opt in or out of Francis.
