Jeff Glass to join Flames on tryout deal

The Calgary Flames will give a journeyman goaltender a chance to make the team out of training camp.

Jeff Glass is going to suit up for the Flames on a professional tryout contract, the netminder confirmed on the "Bosco Podcast" on Monday.

The 32-year-old split last season between the AHL's Rockford IceHogs and their parent club, the Chicago Blackhawks, posting a .904 save percentage in 28 AHL games and a mark of .898 in 15 NHL appearances.

Glass played for the IceHogs and the Toronto Marlies in 2016-17 after spending seven seasons with six different teams in the KHL. Before his tenure in Russia, he played parts of four campaigns in the AHL and also appeared in 39 ECHL contests.

He was a third-round pick of the Ottawa Senators in 2004.
