Higgins will join Calgary on a professional tryout agreement it was announced Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Higgins had a disappointing 2015-16 campaign, four points in 33 contests, which led the Canucks to buy him out of his contract and make him a free agent. Given those type of numbers, it should come as no surprise the Flames weren't willing to sign the 33-year-old outright. Higgins does have a shot at making the opening day roster when you consider the lack of quality depth on the wings for Calgary, but fantasy owners should probably look elsewhere for discounted value this upcoming season.
