It's an off-day for the Calgary Flames and the team's roster has grown with the addition of several "black aces" to the roster.
Since I was asked how many players are on the roster right now, here's a quick update:
Four goaltenders:
- Jonas Hiller
- Karri Ramo
- Jon Gillies - brought up from Providence College (NCAA) after signing an entry-level deal.
- Joni Ortio - brought up from Adirondack (AHL) after their season ended.
17 defensemen, 12 of which that are able to play:
- David Schlemko
- Kris Russell
- Mark Giordano - Injured Reserve (bicep tear); skating
- Dennis Wideman
- T.
