Flames Sign Mark Giordano

Wednesday, Jul. 2nd, 2008

Calgary, AB - Calgary Flames General Manager Darryl Sutter announced today the signing of defenseman Mark Giordano.

“Mark is an NHL player and we are glad to have him back,” said Sutter. “He was a good player when he left to play in Russia and has improved playing against European players on the larger ice. He is a year older and year more mature.”

A native of Toronto, ON, Giordano spent last season with Moscow Dynamo in the Russian Elite League posting four goals, and nine assists in 50 games.

Giordano was originally signed by Calgary on July 6, 2004, and played 48 games with the Flames in 2006-07 scoring seven goals and adding nine assists with 89 penalty minutes.

The 6’0”, 203 lb rearguard was an AHL All-Star during his second professional season while playing for the Flames development club in Omaha.
