CALGARY, Alberta (AP) The Calgary Flames announced they will sign coveted college free-agent forward Spencer Foo.
A standard players’ contract with the 23-year-old from Edmonton will become official when free-agency begins Saturday, the Flames said in a release Tuesday.
Foo had 26 goals and 36 assists in 38 games as a junior for Union College last season.
The 6-foot, 185-pound right wing was a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award that goes to the top player in NCAA Division 1 men’s hockey.
Foo played two seasons for the Alberta Junior Hockey League’s Bonneyville Pontiacs prior to his college career.
