In advance of Monday night’s clash with the Winnipeg Jets, the Calgary Flames have made a roster move.

Friends, the Calgary Flames are 1-5-0 as we write this, and sit in the basement of the National Hockey League’s standings based on points percentage. It has not been a promising start on the ice. Depending on what your viewpoint is on the viability or feasibility of either a full tear-down or a playoff berth,…

The Calgary Wranglers played their fourth game of the season on Sunday and finally secured their first victory of the season.

The back half of the series also needed overtime to decide it but…

Things are not going according to plan for the Calgary Flames. A year ago, the Flames entered the 2024-25 season after a chaotic 2023-24 curious about their team and willing to do nothing and see what the team was capable of. The answer? Turns out they were capable of quite a lot, and rode hot…

On Saturday, John Tavares accomplished something that has been done by three other players. With a two-goal performance during Hockey Night in Canada, Tavares became just the fourth player in National Hockey League history to score 500 points for two different franchises. The other three are Hall of Famers: Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier, and Ron…

It was a big night on the road for the Calgary Wranglers as Matvei Gridin made his immediate impression in the AHL, Rory Kerins beat the All-Time Wranglers scoring record and a three goal comeback just barely fell short in overtime. With a huge push in the third, the Wranglers earned a chance in the…

Is GM Craig Conroy secretly tanking for Gavin McKenna? If so, he’s doing a great job. We’re 10 days into the 2025-26 NHL season, and the Calgary Flames are in last place. They managed to squeak out a win against the Edmonton Oilers in the season opener, a game that was basically handed to them….

The Calgary Flames made some roster moves on Friday afternoon that will pave the way for the return of one of their most important players.

Gridin’s re-assignment opened a roster spot, which they filled by activating forward Jonathan Huberdeau…

The start of the 2025-26 season has not gone the way the Calgary Flames had hoped. They are 1-4-0 with their one win coming in miracle fashion on opening night in Edmonton. If it wasn’t for Stuart Skinner’s brain shutting off, the Flames wouldn’t have a single win. And things don’t look like they’re getting…

Good news, everyone! All signs are pointing to Jonathan Huberdeau returning to the Calgary Flames lineup very soon. Heck, he might be in the lineup as soon as Saturday night’s clash with the Vegas Golden Knights. Huberdeau’s return is a big deal for a Flames team that has started 1-4-0, and he could provide a…

Devin Cooley passed a big test on Wednesday night, making 29 saves for the Calgary Flames in the second game of a back-to-back set in Salt Lake City. And while the Flames did lose that game, Cooley gave them every chance to win in his first appearance in the Flames’ net. So rather than engage…

On Monday, it was announced that the Montréal Canadiens and Lane Hutson had agreed to an eight-year deal worth $8.85 million beginning in the 2026-27 season. While it may seem like a lot for a defenceman entering his sophomore season, Huston has already shown he’[s…

It was another night where the Flames’ sticks stayed stashed, and the offence sputtered on the way to a 3-1 loss in Utah against the Mammoth. CF% – 53.1%|| SCF% – 53.92%|| HDCF% – 58.4%|| xGF% – 48.66% It’s a Team Game – The Calgary Flames simply are not doing enough to challenge the middle…

It’s a brand new season. With the season just over a week old, it’s worth taking a look at how the rest of the Pacific Division is doing. It hasn’t taken long, but it’s easy to tell which teams will be contending for a playoff spot and which teams will be competing for the services…

Gang, the first few weeks of American Hockey League games can be wild. In good ways and bad. For various reasons, many of them financial and logistical, a lot of AHL teams do not play pre-season games. The Calgary Wranglers are among those teams. And so the first few weeks are when you see coaching…
