The Calgary Flames added goaltender Kevin Poulin late last week in a trade that saw precisely zero assets head the other way. This means that they've added a contract without divesting themselves of one, which complicates their ability potentially to do other things later on in the season.
This begs the question: how many active contracts do the Flames have right now?
The short answer? They have 47 active contracts, with 3 deals that are on the books but slide for varying reasons.
