Nazem Kadri is the newest member of the Calgary Flames, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reports.
Terms of the contract were not immediately known.
Kadri, who won the Stanley Cup this past season with the Colorado Avalanche, was a much-coveted unrestricted NHL free agent. The centre collected a career-high 87 points (28 goals, 59 assists) in 71 games this past season, adding another 15 points in 16 playoff games.
Despite that success, Kadri remained unsigned for more than a month after free agency opened in mid-July.
His previous six-year deal, which he signed with the Toronto Maple Leafs, was for $4.5 million a season.
More to come.
