The Calgary Flames are entering the offseason as a team to keep an eye on. With the Flames being in a rebuild, it would not be surprising in the slightest if they continue to trade more of their veteran players during the summer. Due to this, let's look at two Flames defensemen who have the potential to be traded this offseason. Zach Whitecloud Since being acquired by the Flames in the deal that sent Rasmus Andersson to the Vegas Golden Knights, Whitecloud has been a very popular name in...
The Calgary Flames are in the middle of a rebuild. Due to this, they moved on from multiple veteran players this season, including Nazem Kadri, MacKenzie Weegar, and Rasmus Andersson. They should not be done making moves, either, as they have multiple players who could be on the move this offseason. The Flames' forward group, in particular, has some trade candidates to watch this offseason. Let's take a look at them now. Blake Coleman Coleman is undoubtedly a trade candidate to watch thi...
The Calgary Flames made some huge strides this season towards their rebuild, not the least of which was moving out veteran center Nazem Kadri, sending him back to Colorado. But of course, that move left them devoid of a real top-line center, and according to insider David Pagnotta, on the DFO Rundown, that's something they're looking to address this offseason... by sending out one of their remaining top six pivots. What I'm hearing is, would they move Morgan Frost in a larger type deal i...
Breakup Day is in the books and the reviews are mixed—Jonathan Quick gets his flowers, Mika Zibanejad gets cautiously forgiven, and J.T. Miller gets absolutely none of the above. Plus: the Drury transparency debate and a mailbag that lands on Brady Tkachuk.
At the 2026 NHL trade deadline, the Calgary Flames acquired Olli Maatta as part of the deal that sent blueliner MacKenzie Weegar to the Utah Mammoth. While Maatta was primarily dealt to the Flames for salary purposes, he made a big impact for Calgary following the move. In 21 games for the Flames after the trade this campaign, he had two goals and 14 points. With Maatta having such a strong finish to the season, it is fair to wonder if the Flames could look to move the veteran defenseman while...
The Calgary Flames are entering the offseason with multiple pending free agents. One of them is gritty forward Ryan Lomberg. With the Flames rebuilding, it would not be surprising if the Flames let the 31-year-old forward hit the market. If he does, he has the potential to get some interest from teams looking for more grit and toughness in their bottom six. Because of this, let's take a look at three teams that could try to sign Lomberg if he hits free agency this summer. Florida Panther...
The Calgary Flames traded away multiple players this season as they continue their rebuild. They certainly could end up making more moves this summer, and Morgan Frost is one trade candidate on their roster to keep an eye on. With the 26-year-old center entering next season as a pending UFA, he could be a player the Flames flip if they do not view him as a long-term part of their plans. Due to this, let's look at three teams that could target Frost this summer if he is made available. Wi...
The Dallas Stars have once again been one of the NHL's best teams this season. It is not surprising, as they have plenty of talent on their roster. As a result of this, it would not be surprising in the slightest if they look to continue to boost their group during the summer. The Calgary Flames, on the other hand, missed the playoffs and moved on from several notable players this campaign. They will likely continue to listen to offers on their top veteran players this summer. When looki...
The Colorado Avalanche just beat the Calgary Flames 3-1, capturing the 4th Presidents’ trophy in franchise history, and what did head coach Jared Bednar have to say? “We haven’t done anything yet.” As Jared Bednar put the finishing touches on a well-executed line about high standards and expectations, I couldn’t help but sit in awe […]
The Colorado Avalanche wrapped up their last back-to-back of the regular season today as they took on the Calgary Flames.

The Avalanche are likely still getting into the swing of the day after their SO victory in Edmonton last night. Still, the NHL schedule is relentless, even for game 81, as they will face the Flames tonight in Calgary on the second of a back-to-back. That means MacKenzie Blackwood in the net, but will we […]

On April 5th in 2008, the Calgary Flames displayed the sportsmanship that makes NHL hockey special, putting aside their bitter divisional rivalry to salute Vancouver Canucks legend Trevor Linden in his final NHL game.
With fans applauding the Alberta-born center prior to the final period of his career, Calgary players retreated from the faceoff circle allowing players and fans alike to
On March 30th in 2011, Anaheim Ducks forward Ryan Getzlaf tricked referee Gord Dwyer and the off-ice video review crew when he grabbed a puck that had clearly crossed the goal line and was resting on netminder Ray Emery's arm, and inconspicuously placed it in the crease after the whistle preventing Calgary's tying goal.
For his encore, Getzlaf denied allegations relating to his suspect role in
Calgary Flames forward Blake Coleman will certainly be a trade candidate to watch during the summer. With the Flames rebuilding, they could listen to offers for the veteran forward again during the offseason. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Coleman this offseason. Dallas Stars The Stars were heavily linked to Coleman leading up to the deadline, and it would be understandable if they targeted him this summer because of it. With the Stars being c...
The Calgary Flames will be a team to watch during the 2026 NHL offseason. With the Flames rebuilding, it is likely that we will see more of their veteran players moved during the summer. One specific trade candidate to watch from Calgary will be defenseman Zach Whitecloud. Due to this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Whitecloud during the offseason. Ottawa Senators The Senators need to be looking to boost the right side of their blueline this offseason, and it ...
The Avs had the chance to clinch the Presidents’ Trophy and earn home-ice advantage throughout the playoffs tonight against the Calgary Flames. Ultimately, Colorado came away with a 3-1 win over the Flames, earning home ice through the playoffs in what was an uglier game than most people likely bargained for. Let’s take a look […]
The Calgary Flames would more than likely prefer to forget what happened the last time they met the Colorado Avalanche. The 9-2 final score painted the picture of a blowout loss, but a closer look reveals that the Avalanche scored five goals in the first five minutes of the game, so just calling it a […]

DENVER, CO — It was first vs. worst tonight at Ball Arena, and we were in the barn to offer live and in-depth coverage! The Avalanche would go at it without stud-defender Cale Makar, who sustained an upper-body injury in Colorado’s last contest against the Calgary Flames. Vancouver came to town looking to get back into […]
The Calgary Flames were one of the NHL's biggest sellers this season, as they traded Rasmus Andersson (Vegas Golden Knights) MacKenzie Weegar (Utah Mammoth), and Nazem Kadri (Colorado Avalanche). However, with the Flames being in a rebuild, it would not be particularly surprising if they ended up trading more players during the offseason. Because of this, let's look at three Flames who could be on the move during the 2026 NHL offseason. Blake Coleman Coleman will undoubtedly be a trade c...
After a 4-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday night, the Avalanche welcomed the Calgary Flames to town for the first of three regular-season matchups between these two teams. Colorado would come out on top tonight, as they completely put out the Flames by a final score of 9-2. The fun came at a […]
Nazem Kadri’s return to the Colorado Avalanche was so seamless, it feels like it happened forever ago, but really, it’s only been 24 days since Calgary dealt Naz back to his old club in exchange for Victor Olofsson, Max Curran, a 2028 2nd, and 2027 first. Just a few weeks later, Kadri will face his […]

Reports have indicated before the Ducks shipped Ryan Strome to the Calgary Flames, they were in talks with Kyle Dubas and the Penguins about a potential deal. Frank Seravalli: The Penguins were...one of the teams that was calling Anaheim to get in on Ryan Strome; don't have to give up anything, it's just cap space, maybe...
