Welcome back to another edition of Throwback Thursday!
This week in 2003 (July 3), the Calgary Flames completed a big, three-way trade acquiring center Steve Reinprecht and defenceman Rhett Warrener.
Here’s how the deal broke down: the Buffalo Sabres traded defenceman Keith Ballard to the Colorado Avalanche for Reinprecht, then flipped him and Warrener to the Flames for center Chris Drury and Steve Begin.
Reinprecht didn’t last long in Calgary, however, as a year and a half later he was dealt. In the 96 games he did play, he scored 17 goals and 58 points.
