Adirondack has signed multiple attendee to Flames development camp, Chris Dienes to an ATO.

Flames management sees something there (article from 2015):

Dienes recently completed his second stint at the Flames' summer camp, where he performed well and earned valuable experience playing with and against high-level collegians, junior players and NHL prospects.

"I thought the camp went really well. I thought I played really well," said Dienes, who will be a junior at Western this season. "My fitness testing was good. There are some areas I still need to work on, but overall I thought it went pretty well."

The feedback Dienes received was positive. At the very least he's got the Flames' attention as a player to watch and evaluate going forward.

"They said they really love my game," said Dienes. "They're going to continue to watch me. (They said to) keep working on my overall development and hopefully something comes out of it."

Former Lake Superior State head coach Frank Anzalone, now a scout for Calgary, was the person who got Dienes his first invitation to the Flames' camp last summer. Then midway through this season he received an offer from the team's general manager, Brad Treliving, to return again. Dienes had an offer to attend Toronto's development camp, but Dienes opted to head west.

"I liked Calgary," he said. "They've been really good to me and I just thought I'd go back since I enjoyed the camp the first time and I thought I did well. I thought, since they extended another invite I'd be loyal and go back to them."
