Simon Nemec trade to Calgary Flames

Overview

Slovakian defenseman Simon Nemec has moved from the New Jersey Devils to the Calgary Flames following a trade. As part of the transition, the 22-year-old signed a five-year contract with Calgary valued at $36.25 million, carrying an annual cap hit of $7.25 million.

Nemec indicated that the move was motivated by a desire for a larger role, noting that competition for power-play time and top defensive positions in New Jersey made it difficult to play his best hockey.
