The Calgary Flames have traded forward Andrew Mangiapane.
The team confirmed Thursday that the 28-year-old was dealt to the Washington Capitals in exchange for a 2025 second-round draft pick.
“Today’s trade provides us with an increase in valuable draft capital and we have continued to emphasize the importance of how upcoming drafts will influence the future of our franchise,” said Flames General Manager Craig Conroy in a statement. “Additionally, this move affords us with more salary cap and roster flexibility to make decisions after July 1st.”
Mangiapane is entering the final year of a contract and was set to make $5.8 million during 2024-25 season.
The second-round pick the Flames acquired was originally owned by the Colorado Avalanche.
