The Flames have come to terms with one of their remaining restricted free agents, announcing that they’ve come to terms with winger Garnet Hathaway on a one-year, two-way contract. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Hathaway split 2016-17 between Calgary and their AHL affiliate in Stockton, a role he will likely apprise next season. In 26 games with the Flames, he had a goal and four assists while averaging a little over nine minutes per game of ice time. In his NHL career, he has eight points (1-7-8) in 40 games, all with the Flames.
At the minor league level, the 25-year old has been more productive. This past season, he had eight goals and 12 helpers in 31 games with the Heat and has tallied 77 points over the past three years.
With the signing, Calgary now has five remaining restricted free agents. Of those, only Sam Bennett is a full-time NHL player. Their other RFAs are goalies David Rittich and Jon Gillies as well as defensemen Brett Kulak and Tyler Wotherspoon.
