FlamesNation Radio Episode 18: the first 42 games
It’s Episode 18 of FlamesNation Radio! This week, Ryan Pike and Shane Stevenson take some time to break down the highs and the lows of the first 42 games of the season.
What went well? What fills them with optimism? And what fills them with creeping dread? All this, plus a fairly lengthy tangent about Brad Treliving’s ability to upgrade the club’s roster at the trade deadline!
