After a heated CP jihad to take him out to support Johnny Gaudreau in the Hobey Baker race.... Edmonton media personality Bob Stauffer is suggesting that Calgary is going to attempt to sign 6'2, 210lb Center Hobey Baker candidate (top 10 finalist) Corban Knight.
His rights with the Panthers are set to expire on August 15th, and he's made it clear he has no interest in signing with them.

My guess is that the #Flames will be making a deal for Corban Knight's rights

Stats this past season were pretty good for the big two-way Center. 16G, 33A, 49P in 41G Also of particular note... finished 60% in the faceoff dot (averaging 58% over the past three seasons). He had a 19-game point streak, longest at UND in 25 years.
What do we think CP, do we want Feaster to go after this kid? He's a local kid, from High River.
Stauffer also posted this...

Which is interesting, considering he is currently training with Jordan Eberle and there were many hoping that Edmonton would go after him.
