Show Notes
Calgary Flames secure Axel Hurtigs services, bolstering their defense with a three-year entry-level deal. The team now boasts ten defensemen under contract for the 2026-27 season, featuring a mix of veterans and young talent. Key additions include Kevin Bahl, Zach Whitecloud, and Olli Maatta, while emerging stars like Yan Kuznetsov and Hunter Brzustewicz show NHL potential. Young guns Zayne Parekh, Etienne Morin, and Hurtig bring puck-moving skills, though most are expected to start in the AHL. Five defenders hit free agency in July, potentially making way for the teams youth movement.
