Flames land Blackhawks' Carpenter

The Chicago Blackhawks traded forward Ryan Carpenter to the Calgary Flames in exchange for a 2024 fifth-round pick, the teams announced.

Carpenter, 31, has three goals and eight assists in 59 contests this season. In 300 career games, he's collected 26 goals and 68 points.

The Flames already made two big additions ahead of the deadline by bringing in Tyler Toffoli and Calle Jarnkrok to bolster their forward group. Carpenter figures to play on the team's fourth line or serve as insurance depth as the season winds down.
