Curti agrees 2nd term
Flames Defenceman Charlie Curti has agreed terms for a 2nd season under Spectrum lights. After a year at Belfast Giants, the 6’0”, 190lb American transferred to Flames early last season, competing in 55 games, scoring 8 goals and 29 points. The 30 year old spent 2022-2023 with ECHL Toledo Walleye where he had 25 points from 8 goals and 17 assists in 39 starts while earning a 3 game call up to AHL Grand Rapids Griffins ahead of his EIHL debut. After 110 games through 4 seasons at NCAA Yale University from 2015 to 2019 where he collected 9 goals and 37 points, the native of Mound, Minnesota, made his pro debut with 31 points in 2019-2020 at ECHL Adirondack Thunder, following up with a move to Rapid City Rush the very next term. In 150 ECHL appearances, he had 24 goals and 72 points. Curti made his EU debut in 2021-2022 at Aalborg Pirates where a 23 point showing in 35 games helped with the Danish Championship haul. “We made some very good improvements last year with some mid season adds, and Charlie was one of them,” said Head Coach Paul Dixon. “We were able to play him in a lot of different situations, including on the powerplay, and he was able to have his most productive offensive season of his pro career and bringing him back was a pretty easy decision.” “We know he is excited to come back for a new season and we are looking forward to his contribution to the blue line unit when he has the opportunity to be here from opening day.” |
