Calgary just locked down 22-year-old defenseman Simon Nemec with a massive five-year, $36.25M deal — a $7.25M cap hit annually — after trading for his rights and teammate Maxim Tsyplakov from New Jersey. The Flames paid a steep price: this year’s second-round pick, two conditional future first-rounders, and prospect Etienne Morin. Devils GM Sunny Mehta called it a no-brainer — Calgary outbid everyone, and Nemec, who’s averaged 19 minutes a game in 159 NHL games since being drafted second overall in 2022, was ready for a fresh start. This is Calgary’s bold bet on Nemec’s future — and he’s got the contract to prove it.
