This week’s show was recorded live on June 28, 2024 during the first round of the 2024 Entry Draft.We disucss not only the draft but the Mangiapane and Markstrom trades, Brad Larsen being hired as a coach and more. This show will sound different than you’re used to. We are still trying to get our setup all figured out for recording live shows and we learned a lot during this one, which we’ll apply next time to make it even better.

It’s late October and we should be talking about the Flames poor start to a season about now, but instead this episode is all about the NHL Entry Draft and free agency. What a weird year!

We recap what the Flames did at the draft table and if we think trading down twice to get Connor Zary was a good move or not. Then we discuss all the Flames who have come and gone in free agency and our thoughts on each move and where the players fit into the depth chart as well as an overall assessment of how the team looks for next season – whenever it starts.

The Stanley Cup has been awarded, which means the off-season is upon us. With the 2020 NHL Entry Draft a little less than a week away, we discuss the type of player we think the Flames need to focus on this year if they need more forwards or defencemen and profile some players that are expected to be available with our first few picks. Of course, we also discuss what it would take for the Flames to move pick #19 to go up, down, or trade the pick away entirely.

In this episode – recorded live at Winsport during the Flames 2019 development camp – Dan and Matt break down what the Flames did (and didn’t do) during the July 1 free agent signing period, and how the team looks at this point. The rest of the show is dedicated to our thoughts on the 2019 Development Camp, and interviews with the prospects in attendance.

It’s been a busy week for the Calgary Flames and GM Brad Treliving. The NHL Entry Draft, the Expansion Draft, and the Flames acquiring goalie Mike Smith and Defenceman Travis Hamonic to fill two big holes in the lineup, and put them into “win now mode”. The guys will break down all these moves and discuss what it means for the future of the franchise.

With the 2016 NHL Entry Draft behind us we look back at the Flames 9 picks and introduce you to each of the players the Flames selected. Plus we discuss the new Flames coach Glen Gulutzan and speculate on who his new Associate Coach will be. As we look ahead to July 1 and the start of the “Free Agent Frenzy” we speculate who might be a target for the Flames to sign and what holes on the roster need to be addressed.

After the Flames won their 30th game of the season against the Sharks we look at the last week of games and what the Flames have gone through to get to a 17-4-1 record against the Pacific Division. Matt and Dan look back at previous seasons to see how and when the Flames reached their 30th win in the past.

Posted on May 17, 2013 (Season 1)

In the second of our two part look at the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, we take a look at the Flames later two picks in the first rounf (project to be 25 and 29), and who the Flames might draft with those picks. Should the team pick with both picks, or trade one (or both) away for a higher pick, or roster players?
