The Calgary Flames have signed a forward Martin Frk on a one-year, two-party contract.
Frk returns to North America after playing in Switzerland in 2023-24, tallying seven goals and nine assists in 33 games with Bern SC and SC Rapperswil-Jona.
Frk is a five-time goal scorer in the AHL, including a 40-goal effort with Ontario in 2021-22 that earned him Second Team AHL All-Star honors. He also skated in the 2020 AHL All-Star Classic, where his shot clocked in at 109.2 miles per hour broke the record for the toughest event in the All-Star Skills Competition.
Frk has compiled 167 goals and 150 assists for 317 points in 403 AHL games with Springfield, Ontario and Grand Rapids, and won a Calder Cup championship with the Griffins in 2017.
Originally selected by Detroit in the second round of the 2012 NHL Draft, Frk has collected 20 goals and 21 assists in 124 NHL games with Carolina, Detroit and Los Angeles.
