Ducks Acquire Jaffray from Flames for MacMillan
The Anaheim Ducks continued to be busy on Wednesday night by acquiring center Jason Jaffray from the Calgary Flames in exchange for center Logan MacMillan. Jaffray played in three games with the Flames last season, scoring no points. He also appeared in 72 games with Abbotsford of the AHL, scoring 25 goals and 29 assists for 54 points and 70 penalty minutes. In seven games last season Abbotsford, MacMillan scored no points. He also appeared in 30 games with Bakersfield of the ECHL, scoring two goals and four assists for six points. This is really just a depth move for both teams. Jaffray doesn't have much upside, but gives the Ducks a solid minor leaguer and a versatile forward who can play both center and wing in case of injuries. The Flames get the player with more upside in this deal, but MacMillan has struggled to put up decent numbers over the past couple of seasons. Perhaps the change in scenery will help him improve his game, as the Flames are looking for more offense up front.

Flames Sign Forward Jaffray, Re-Sign Forward Lundmark
The Calgary Flames announced on Tuesday that they have signed right wing Jason Jaffray and re-signed center Jamie Lundmark. Exact length and financial terms of the deals were not disclosed. In 14 games last season with the Vancouver Canucks, Jaffray scored two goals and two assists for four points. He also appeared in 56 games for the Canucks’ AHL affiliate, Manitoba Moose, scoring 23 goals and 26 assists for 49 points. Lundmark appeared in 27 games last season for the Flames, scoring eight goals and eight assists for 16 points. In 259 career games with the Flames, New York Rangers, Phoenix Coyotes, and Los Angeles Kings, he has 35 goals and 52 assists for 87 points.
These are likely just depth signings for the Flames. Jaffray has had a lot of success at the minor league level, but at 28-years-old, he doesn’t have a lot of time to prove himself in the NHL. However, he still brings plenty of offensive depth to the team. Lundmark brings the Flames plenty of offensive depth and gritty play. Both players will likely end up on the Flames’ fourth line next season.
