Peter Hanlon named Calgary Flames new assistant GM
'Peter will be involved in all areas of hockey operations including player evaluation, player recruitment and strategic planning,' Conroy said in a press release. 'Together with Assistant General Managers Dave Nonis and Brad Pascall, Peter will help us pursue our goal of bringing the Stanley Cup back to Calgary.'
Hanlon has worked in the hockey world for over 30 years, beginning his career with the Toronto Maple Leafs' AHL affiliate, who were playing in St. John's, Nfld, at the time. He was then recruited to work at the AHL head office before joining the Flames.
He has considerable experience at the international level, too, having been a part of Team Canada at the 2002 Olympics, multiple world championships and the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.
That's experience the Flames clearly put a lot of stock in.
'Peter has worked in professional hockey for over 30 years,' Maloney said. 'His knowledge and experience are a welcomed addition to our staff.'
