Jon Gillies has agreed to a two-year, $1.5-million deal with the Calgary Flames, the team announced Tuesday.

The agreement is a two-way deal for the first year, which becomes a one-way contract in 2019-20.

Gillies appeared in 11 games with the Flames last season, posting a 3-5-1 record with a .896 save percentage.

The 24-year-old will compete for the Flames' backup position this season with fellow netminder David Rittich, a restricted free agent who has filed for salary arbitration.
