The Calgary Flames completed a trade with the Vancouver Canucks a few weeks ago. One of the players involved in that deal recently shared his thoughts.

In February, the Canucks sent Andrei Kuzmenko, Joni Jurmo, Hunter Brzustewicz and two draft picks to land Elias Lindholm from the Calgary Flames.

It was a sudden change for Brzustewicz. However, it turned out well, as he just signed a three-year entry-level deal with the Flames.

Per NHL.com:

The 19-year-old from Washington talked about his experience in a recent interview.

Here's what he said:

We don't often hear players thinking it would be cool to leave one of the best organizations in the NHL. However, with all the talent on the roster, it's not easy to make it in Vancouver. With the Flames trading away key defensemen in Tanev, Hanifin and Zadorov, they needed to add something at the blue line. While Brzustewicz still plays in the OHL, he'll be interesting to follow at the next training camp.

More to come.
