Flames signing three Russians in three weeks after not having one for over a decade is a pretty impressive reversal.
That “mystery defenceman” is likely Alexander Yelesin, a right-shot from KHL Lokomotiv. The Flames were one of several teams pursuing himhttps://twitter.com/Fan960Steinberg/status/1120413484829876229 …

-in his opinion, Monahan isn’t healthy enough to go to Worlds but it’s not up to him.
-team didn’t deal with momentum well enough vs. Colorado.
-team has more depth coming, including a d-man they’ve signed but not announced. #Flames

Flames have more than enough young talent on D. Anderson, Valimaki, Kylingyon. They need to get Brodie out, time is up. They don’t need a low scoring Russian defenceman.
