The Calgary Flames win streak came to an end at 4 games, as they lost their first ever game in Seattle to the Kraken. Our hosts discuss what they expect for the Flames in the next week and look at some news from the Calgary Wranglers. Then we end the show by answering some very good questions from our listeners about who has more potential – Sam Honzek or Matt Coronato, and talking about the Flames and Craig Conroy’s plan and how it gets altered if they make the playoffs.
