Default Flames sign CZE D Jakub Nakladal to 1 year ELC

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
CGY signs CZE UFA D Jakub Nakladal, 27, to 1-yr entry level deal. Played in FIN this season, for CZE at World Championship.

Ray Ferraro @rayferrarotsn
Big shot, right handed -- plays pretty physically as well...

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
CGY signing of Nakladal low risk. One-yr entry-level deal, which means two-way contract. If he doesn't make NHL team, his $ go to minors.

Is he a big pylon or can he actually get around the ice?

At worst, Belov. At best? physical shut down D man? I really have no idea what this player is all about so I walking in blind to this.

At least Treliving is active. Two-way deal? Waiver eligible?

Quick, somebody check his NHL 15 player rating so I can decide how to feel about this!

No risk, potential high reward.

These UFA signings have rarely worked out but it's ones like this that might. Not a top line guy but potentially a guy that can be solid on your bottom pairing.

Also always need depth on the back-end.

Would love to get him over to North America for the summer, think that fitness is sometimes a big shock for the guys coming to the NHL for the first time.

I am just happy with the signing because Chicago didn't get him. Suck it Chicago.

I wonder if he'll become our 6th/7th defenseman for the 15/16 season.

Adding depth is never a bad thing, especially if it addresses an organizational need. Good move.

I think he played with Hudler on some of the Czech international teams over the years.

Wonder if Hudler had any part in recruiting him.

But I thought we wanted to trade Hudler?

He played on Kipper's Finnish team along with Mikko Rantanen.

Clearly this is a coup to draft Mikko.

Don't toy with me. Rantanen is my 2015 Barkov.

As an ELC, it is a 2 way deal.

He will also be an UFA at the end of next season.
