A season ago, the Neepawa, Man., native posted 11 points (3g-8a) and a team-high 153 penalty minutes in 55 games with the Admirals, and was one of just four AHLers to post more than 150 penalty minutes and a plus/minus rating in double digits (+11).

Brian McGrattan signs 2-year deal with Calgary
Dane Byers suspended 1 - game
The Flames have a new tough guy: former Ottawa Senators pugilist Brian McGrattan.
The six-foot-three, 235-pound Hamilton native, taken 104th overall by the Los Angeles Kings in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft, was an unrestricted free agent.
"I'm very excited to come to Calgary and be a part of this team," said McGrattan.
McGrattan, 27, played more than 140 games for the Senators before he was traded to the Phoenix Coyotes for a fifth-round pick in June, 2008.
After just three games with the Desert Dogs, he voluntarily entered the substance abuse program administered jointly by the NHL and the players’ association.

Aaron Asham vs Cam Janssen
They meet up at the blueline, drop the gloves and square off. They both jab with the left and throw some overhand rights but nothing much. But then Janssen lands a hard right that sends Asahm to his knees, and Janssen lands another big right while he's down, but Asham gets back up. They exchange some more punches and then Asham lands one that knocks Janssen off balance. And the zebras break them up. DRAW
