Flames sign Vladar to 2-year, $4.4M extension

The Calgary Flames signed backup goaltender Dan Vladar to a two-year extension carrying an average annual value of $2.2 million, the team announced Thursday.

Vladar has one more season left on his current deal, which carries a $750,000 AAV, before the new pact begins.

The 25-year-old posted a .906 save percentage and a 2.75 goals-against average in 23 appearances with the Flames last season. He stopped 26-of-29 shots in a win during his lone outing this year.

The 6-foot-5 Czech netminder was a third-round pick by the Boston Bruins in 2015. The Flames acquired Vladar for a third-rounder in July 2021.
