The\u00a0Calgary Flames<\/a> have signed forward\u00a0Logan Shaw<\/a><\/strong> to a Professional Try-Out deal and invited him to training\u00a0camp.

Calgary Flames Sign Forward Logan Shaw to a PTO<\/h1>\n

Over his three-year NHL career, Shaw has played for the Florida Panthers<\/a>, Anaheim\u00a0Ducks<\/a>, and Montreal Canadiens. He has scored 12 goals and 19 assists for 31 career points in 180 career games. Shaw has also played 12 career Stanley Cup Playoff games\u00a0but is yet to record a post-season point.\u00a0He was originally drafted in the third round, 76th overall in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft by the Panthers.<\/p>\n

Last\u00a0season, he scored four goals and 10 assists for 14 points in 72 games. He also added 12 minutes in penalties. His possession numbers were 46.1 percent Corsi with a relative Corsi of -2.7 percent. Shaw is coming off a one year, $650,000 contract that he signed with the Ducks in March 2017. He was claimed on waivers by the Canadiens in January<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What This Mean’s for Shaws Future<\/h1>\n

After being claimed on waivers from the Ducks in January, Shaw had two goals and four assists\u00a0in 30 games with the Habs. Shaw was able to double his hit total from the 2016-17 season racking up 110 hits this season. A journeyman NHLer, expect Shaw to be a fourth liner next year at best. His physicality will certainly be an asset for his new team’s fourth line next year. Shaw has the versatility to play both at\u00a0centre and on the wing. This will help him to earn playing time and be a valued piece on the roster.<\/p>\n
