Gridin has been assigned to the Calgary Wranglers (AHL) in a move to help accommodate activating Jonathan Huberdeau (undisclosed) off of Injured Reserve. The 19-year-old Gridin made his NHL debut last week and has recorded one goal in four games with the Flames this season.

Gridin will take a seat on Wednesday as the Flames opt to get some fresh legs into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Justin Kirkland will draw into the lineup in his place.
