CALGARY - Goaltender Jon Gillies was re-assigned by the Calgary Flames to their American Hockey League affiliate on Saturday.
The 23-year-old Gillies had been with the Flames on an emergency basis following Brian Elliott's illness.
Gillies, Calgary's third round pick (75th overall) in the 2012 NHL Draft, has played 34 games for the AHL's Stockton Heat in his second pro season and has a 14-14-1 record with a shutout, a 2.97 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage.
He leads the Heat goalies in games played and wins as the club is currently tied for a playoff spot in the AHL.
