Flames' Hunter Brzustewicz Addresses Being Traded at 19-Years-Old in New Interview
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.
Canucks and Flames' Trade: Hunter Brzustewicz Opens Up on his Experience
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.

Brzustewicz Opens Up on Being Traded From Vancouver to Calgary
The 19-year-old from Washington talked about his experience in a recent interview.
Here's what he said:
"Couple months ago knowing Canucks were going to make a big move, I was telling couple of my buddies it would be pretty cool to be part of a trade."
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.
