CALGARY — The Calgary Flames have signed defenceman Hunter Brzustewicz to a three-year entry-level contract.

The average annual value of the deal is US$950,000.

Calgary acquired Brzustewicz from Vancouver on Jan. 31 in a trade that also brought in Andrei Kuzmenko, Joni Jurmo, and the Canucks’ 2024 first-round pick and 2024 conditional fourth-round pick in exchange for forward Elias Lindholm.

Vancouver selected Brzustewicz in the third round (75th overall) in the 2023 draft.

The six-foot, 190-pound blue liner has skated in 62 games with the Kitchener Rangers of the Ontario Hockey League this season.
