Calgary Flames' Dark Horse Candidates for Next Captain

Calgary Flames' Dark Horse Candidates for Next Captain

December 27th, 2020 Mark Giordano doesn’t appear ready to retire in the foreseeable future, however, whenever he does, the Calgary Flames will have quite a few worthy options for the captaincy. Matthew Tkachuk is the most obvious person to fill this role when the time comes, and, with the rising trend of a team’s star player being named captain at a...

Grading the Calgary Flames' 2020 Offseason

November 21st, 2020 The Calgary Flames have had a fairly high amount of roster turnover this offseason. Add a very solid draft to the equation and you have what has been a fairly exciting but frustrating offseason for Flames fans. Brad Treliving still has more to do considering Oliver Kylington is currently a restricted free agent, but any further moves...

Flames Need Their Stars to Shine For Success in 2021

Flames Get Great Potential With Mangiapane Extension

October 19th, 2020 The Calgary Flames signed Andrew Mangiapane to a two-year contract extension on Friday, Oct. 16. This extension allowed him and the Flames to avoid salary arbitration, which is important for the team/player relationship going forward as it prevents a potentially disastrous situation. He was the second-to-last restricted free agent that...
Flames Prospects Gawdin & Valimaki Primed to Earn a Spot on the Roster

Flames Prospects Gawdin & Valimaki Primed to Earn a Spot on the Roster

October 16th, 2020 The Calgary Flames have had a bit of a rough offseason. Yes, they added a few players who will help the team, but they also lost a few. As a result, their prospects will need to step up and take on a big role with the club. Glenn Gawdin and Juuso Valimaki are ready to play in the NHL full time, however, roster spots won't just be handed...
