Confirmed with Link: Flames sign Corey Potter [1-year, 2-way]

[Wheels of Poirier]

There's a small write-up on Corey Potter from Len Nunes of flameforthought.com:

The former New York Ranger, Pittsburgh Penguin, Edmonton Oiler and Boston Bruin, Corey Potter is listed at 6’3″, 204 pounds. Despite his good size, Potter is not known for the “truculence” that our Calgary Flames have become synonymous for exuding.

Corey Potter is a mobile defenseman but you won’t hear the word “fast” associated with him. Corey Potter is a respectable third pairing defenseman but if moves up to the second pairing ***shudder***.

David Staples of the Edmonton Journal sums up Corey Potter the best in his April 11, 2013 article:

“Potter is a decent player against mediocre competition“

I can't say I'd heard much about him prior to signing with Calgary, but I was surprised to hear he scored 21 points with the Coilers in 62 games just two seasons ago. Will definitely bolster the Adirondack blueline and create a bit of competition between guys looking to make the jump should opportunities arise (i.e. injuries).
