The Calgary Flames dipped into the collegiate pool for some defensive depth.
Ohio State blue-liner Josh Healey signed a two-year, entry-level contract with the club, the Flames announced Saturday.
Healey recorded 25 points in 35 games in his senior season with the Buckeyes, who were eliminated by Minnesota-Duluth in the opening round of the NCAA tournament in overtime Friday night.
The 22-year-old will finish out the campaign with the Flames' AHL affiliate, the Stockton Heat, and his two-year deal will begin next season.
