[edit] Playing career

David Moss was selected 220th overall in the seventh round of the 2001 NHL Entry Draft and played for the Flames' AHL affiliate, the Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights from the 2005-06 season. While with the Knights, he was third in team scoring with 21 goals and 48 points. As the team's leading scoring rookie, Moss also led the Knights with 16 powerplay goals which was tied for third in the league. A late season injury prevented him from playing the entire season.

On December 19, 2006, Moss was recalled by the Calgary Flames, and on December 19 scored the game winning goal on his National Hockey League debut against the Los Angeles Kings. He followed this with two more goals in his next two games, both against the Vancouver Canucks, to begin his NHL career with a three-game goal streak. His career continues to pick up speed as surprise rookie David Moss flies under the radar, scoring 9 goals in only 34 games so far in the 06-07 season. He now has all but solidified his place as RW on the second line along side the likes of Daymond Langkow, and Kristian Huselius, who are both having career seasons.
