First off my favourite last name in a Flames jersey since Loob. Old guys remember when they used to put OOOOOOOOOOs around the bowl at the Dome when he scored goals?
Another interesting tie to the 80s actually. Oilers have the star now, and then. Flames have the balance. And Flames adding college free agents in Healey and Spencer Foo, in the 80s the Flames added Macoun and Otto, Berezan.
Great add to the prospect depth.
I'm not penciling anyone in but I think he fits into the Jankowski, Shinkaruk, Poirier, Klimchuk, Mangiapane group of guys at the top of the minor pro list up front vying for spots.
Love that it's like getting a 2nd round pick back.
