Victor Olofsson will become the first player to wear 95 for the #Flames in a regular season game.

Ryan Strome will wear 22, and Victor Olofsson will wear 95 for the #Flames.

Now that you've had a day to reflect on the Weegar trade, how do you feel about it for the #Flames?

The #Flames went into this season with 5 guys wearing an "A" on their jerseys - Andersson, Weegar, Huberdeau, Coleman, and Kadri. Only 2 are left on the active roster. Do you expect anyone else to be given an "A" this season?

The NYR and OTT second round picks that the #Flames acquired yesterday will be very high picks in that round. You wonder what the #Flames would have to add to a deal to trade one of those and move up to a late first round pick.

Olli Maata will be wearing jersey number 3 for the #Flames.

Olli Maata has a $3,500,000 contract until the end of 2027-2028 (the same expiry as Whitecloud). He also has a 10 team no trade list.

More information is coming out about a MacKenzie Weegar trade to Utah. It sounds like a done deal. The #Flames are expected to get Olli Maatta, three 2026 2nd-round picks (NYR, OTT, UTH), and a prospect.

Credible sources are reporting that MacKenzie Weegar has waived his no movement clause, potentially allowing the #Flames to trade him to Utah. Tij Iginla is not expected to be coming back.

Who do you think should get Rasmus Andersson's "A" for the #Flames ?

What museum do you think Dougie Hamilton visited today while in #yyc to take on the #Flames ?

Whitecloud warms up for his first game as a #Flames player without a helmet.

Whitecloud wants up for his first game as a Flame with no helmet.

It is expected Zach Whitecloud will make his debut for the #Flames tonight against New Jersey. He is expected to be paired with Kevin Bahl. Look for jersey number 28 on the ice tonight.

Zach Whitecloud will be wearing jersey number 28 for the #Flames when he joins the team. Whether Whitecloud makes his Flames debut tonight depends largely on his travel day.

The Kulak and Skinner families received fantastic holiday gifts today...getting out of Edmonton.

The Jarry and Poulin families must've been on the naughty list this year. Our condolences.

We're recording a new podcast episode this evening. Is there a Calgary #Flames related topic you want us to discuss? Or a question about this team we can answer?

Jonathan Huberdeau wasn't acknowledged at all during the #Flames home opener introductions. Not even with the group of players not dressed tonight. Very odd.

Zayne Parekh makes his season debut for the #Flames in this afternoon's home opener.

The #Flames opening night roster has been announced. Jonathan Huberdeau and Martin Pospisil start the season on the IR. In their place, Matvei Gridin and Sam Honzek will be in the lineup.

Two number changes - Matvei Gridin will wear 92 and
Zayne Parekh will wear 19.

After tonight's game, who do you feel should be Dustin Wolf's backup for the #Flames to start the season?

Pospisil and Huberdeau both hurt this game. The #Flames may have a few more forward roster spots to fill out of camp than expected.

It's cool that the #Flames and Canucks are hosting each other in their respective AHL arenas this pre-season.

The deal we were all waiting for is done! Dustin Wolf has signed a new 7 year deal with the #Flames. $7.5.million AAV.
