Tobias Reider has signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Calgary Flames after a successful professional tryout at the team's training camp. It's worth $700,000 at the NHL level and $100,000 in the AHL. The German forward last played in the NHL for the Edmonton Oilers, where he failed to score a goal in 67 regular season games. He did have 11 assists. In 379 career NHL games, the 26-year-old has 55 goals and 128 points.

Meanwhile, radio host Pat Steinberg says there's a good chance Calgary will sign two other players who were at the team's camp on PTOs; Zac Rinaldo and Andrew MacDonald. Rinaldo, known for this rougher style of play, suited up last for the Nashville Predators. The 29-year-old has also played for the Boston Bruins, Philadelphia Flyers and Arizona Coyotes. MacDonald is a 33-year-old defenseman who most recently played for the Philadelphia Flyers. He has 568 NHL games under his belt, with 28 goals and 161 points.
