Flames acquire Dryden Hunt from Leafs ahead of trade deadline
The Calgary Flames have acquired forward Dryden Hunt from the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Hunt has played nine games with the Leafs this season, registering one goal on six shots. The left-shot left-winger also played three games with the New York Rangers and 25 games with the Colorado Avalanche, registering two goals.
He also has nine points (four goals, five assists) in 15 games with the Toronto Marlies in the American Hockey League.
The Maple Leafs are receiving Adam Zohorna in return, according to Darren Dreger of TSN. Zohorna has no points in eight games with the Flames this season, and 29 points (10 goals, 19 assists) in 40 games with the AHL’s Calgary Wranglers.
Each is a pending unrestricted free agent at season’s end.
Dryden Hunt looks to be on the move again, this time to Calgary.
