Calgary Flames Sign Defenceman Joel Hanley to Two-Year Extension

On Tuesday, the Calgary Flames announced they have secured defenceman Joel Hanley with a new contract lasting two years and featuring an average annual value of $1.75 million.
The extension followed the departure of goalie Dan Vladar to the Philadelphia Flyers and a need for more defensive depth, according to GM Craig Conroy.
Hanley, a 34-year-old left-handed defenseman from Keswick, Ontario, appeared in a personal best 53 games last season, recording two goals and seven assists while averaging 18.5 minutes of ice time per contest.
Conroy acknowledged the need to strengthen the lineup following Dan's departure and highlighted the importance of adhering to their strategy despite other teams adding new players.
The contract indicates the Flames aim to maintain defensive stability while also pursuing younger talent such as Kevin Bahl, who signed a six-year, $32.1-million extension recently.
