Our teeth-to-player ratio was off with the absence of Tanev. Glad to bring a little more balance to the team.

His tweet says he's a left shot but his hockeydb says he shoots right?

Mr. Morton is the subject of my contract, and what the predicate says he does.

The Flames won’t want a long rebuild with a new arena on the horizon. The next two or three years they need lots of draft picks/assets and hopefully some of them pan out. College, Europe, NHL draft. Load up.

In short, I really like signings like this. Another lottery ball.

I agree.

Anyone know where we're at in terms of our contract limit?

Yup, stand corrected, every other site says he shoots left too. I was kind of hoping he was a righty but oh well.

It looks like 29 players under contract for next season right now. This will make it 30.

Hopefully more of an Evil Morty than a regular Morty.
