"The future in Calgary is bright. This is a team that wants to win now and that's why I'm excited to join this team. At the age I'm at, I want to win now," said the St. Jerome native, who also looks forward to his arrival across the border.
"As a Canadian, it's exciting for me to play in my country. Calgary is a great hockey town. The fans are fired up. Playing for the visiting team the last few years, it's always been tough to play in the Saddledome. There's a great atmosphere there."
