That day has finally come and I'm happy to welcome him back to Calgary. Jarome provides a creative approach and smart hockey mind to our team blended with a passion for the game, and a desire to win the Stanley Cup.
Our relationship goes back 20 years and includes being opponents and teammates combined with a long-standing friendship.

I look forward to our team benefiting from his fierce competitiveness, career experiences and love of hockey."
