The Calgary Flames have agreed to a two-year contract extension with forward Yegor Sharangovich with an annual cap hit of $3.1 million, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reports.
Calgary acquired Sharangovich along with a 2023 third-round pick from the New Jersey Devils in exchange for forward Tyler Toffoli.
The 25-year-old Belarusian forward is coming off a down year with the Devils, tallying just 13 goals and 30 points after he eclipsed the 20-goal plateau the season prior. This deal represents a pay bump on the one that paid him $2 million last season.
"Good size, skates well, can score. He’s a shooter, that’s his MO," Flames GM Craig Conroy said when asked to describe his new player.
