Flames activate Kris Versteeg off IR

The Calgary Flames activated forward Kris Versteeg off injured reserve Wednesday.

Versteeg hasn't played since Nov. 24 due to a hip injury.

Even though he only had three goals and five assists in 22 games prior to his injury, the team will surely welcome his return. The Flames sit two points out of the Western Conference playoff picture, so they need all the help they can get.
