Flames acquire winger <b>Akim</b> Aliu from Winnipeg Jets

Posted: 30 Jan 2012 11:05 AM PST

The Calgary Flames, continuing to gradually reshape their organization, have acquired winger Akim Aliu from the Winnipeg Jets in exchange for defenceman John Negrin.

On loan from the Jets, Akiu had collected five points, including four goals, in 13 games with the Flames' farm team in Abbotsford.

Born in Nigeria, Akiu is six foot three and 205 pounds.

Both prospects were drafted in 2007 — Aliu 56th overall, out of OHL Sudbury, to the Chicago Blackhawks; Negrin 70th, out of WHL Kootenay, to the Flames.

Negrin, highly touted during the Darryl Sutter era, never got on track, primarily because of injuries. The 22-year-old had produced one point in 26 games for Abbotsford this winter.
