SEABROOK TO CALGARY
The Calgary Flames acquired defenseman Keith Seabrook from the Washington Capitals for future considerations.
What does it give the Calgary Flames
Seabrook played for the WHL's Calgary Hitmen last season, under new Flames assistant coach Dave Lowry. Therefore, the organization is quite familiar with the younger brother of Chicago's Brent Seabrook. For now, he'll add depth to the Flames' AHL affiliate.
What does it give the Washington Capitals
There was a logjam on defense for the Capitals organization, both with the big club and at lower levels. Therefore, the squad decided to move Seabrook. They'll likely receive back a middling prospect or low-level draft pick.
