Friends, it’s almost here! Monday is cut-down day for the National Hockey League’s 32 teams, and games begin on Tuesday night! (The Calgary Flames don’t start until Saturday…) So let’s celebrate with a mailbag!
The Calgary Flames have made some roster moves! On Sunday afternoon, the club announced that they’ve assigned five players to the American Hockey League’s Stockton Heat: goaltender Adam Werner, defenseman Connor Mackey, and forwards Walker Duehr, Byron Froese and Justin Kirkland.
The Calgary Flames are nearing the end of training camp, with opening day rosters due to the league by 3 p.m. MT on Monday afternoon. In advance of that occasion, we’ve decided to take a trip down memory lane and look at the various season-opening rosters since Brad Treliving became general manager in 2014.
If there’s one team the Calgary Flames will forever be compared to, it’s the Edmonton Oilers. Since the Flames arrived in Alberta in 1980, they’ve been in a battle with the Oilers for provincial supremacy. 2021-22 looks to be a season where the Oilers have an edge in the battle, primarily due to the fact…
The Calgary Flames may have settled on their opening forward group. Per multiple reports, the club has placed Byron Froese and Justin Kirkland on waivers. If they clear, they would both presumably be assigned to the American Hockey League’s Stockton Heat on Sunday.

The Calgary Flames were missing a few NHL regulars, but they looked very much like what we expect from their full-strength line-up on Friday night. The Flames capped off their exhibition schedule with a 3-1 victory over the visiting Winnipeg Jets.
The arduous journey of eight pre-season games with nothing but jobs on the line finally reaches its conclusion for the Calgary Flames this evening. In their eighth and final game, they host the Winnipeg Jets, who beat them 3-2 in Manitoba on Wednesday evening. The puck drops just after 7 p.m. MT on Sportsnet 960…
The Calgary Flames are back in the Pacific Division this season. To get everyone reacquainted with the new divisional foes, we’re previewing every team. There are three National Hockey League teams in the state of California. Two of them have won the Stanley Cup. The odd team out is the San Jose Sharks, who haven’t…
The Calgary Flames will be without their biggest off-season acquisition to start the regular season. The NHL’s Department of Player Safety has suspended Blake Coleman for two games – one pre-season and one regular season – for his hit on Winnipeg Jets forward Jansen Harkins on Wednesday night.
As of Thursday morning, the Calgary Flames have 31 players on their camp roster and one pre-season game left to evaluate them. With the sands rapidly disappearing from the training camp hourglass, here’s how the camp roster shakes out.
