The Calgary Flames reached the midway mark of their pre-season schedule on Tuesday evening when they hosted – and beat – the Vancouver Canucks at the Scotiabank Saddledome.

Ahead of that game, on Tuesday afternoon, Daily Faceoff Calgary managing editor Ryan Pike joined Daily Faceoff Vancouver’s David Quadrelli and Harman Dayal to discuss all sorts of Flames-related topics on their daily program, West Coast Conversation.

Topics of conversation included:

The future of hockey coverage is bigger than one team, one market, or one platform. By bringing our local hockey brands together under Daily Faceoff, we’re creating a more complete hockey experience — one that gives fans the best of local passion and league-wide expertise, all in one place. The community remains at the centre. The experience is simply expanding as part of the next evolution of how we cover the game.
