The state of the Flames with Kent Wilson

Season 6, Ep. 36

Hey, fellas. Flamesnation OG and all around great guy Kent Wilson jumped on with us today to discuss where the Flames are at, where they're going, and what pitfalls they need to avoid heading through this cycle of team building. We talk about 'culture', why the cohort method of team building is important, and why there is no 'Dallas model'.

Take 'er easy, boys. (Let's go Panthers)

    25:49||Season 6, Ep. 41
    Well, well, well. The reports over the weekend were that the Flames were trying to move Rasmus Andersson but he wasn't willing to talk extension with any of them. Now it appears Vegas is his desired destination. How did we get here again? Shades of Noah Hanifin. We're a bad mood about this one!

  • 37. The greasy nightmare continues + Wolfie is the Calder runner up

    50:04||Season 6, Ep. 37
    The nightmare continues as the greaseballs somehow blitzed the Panthers again to win in OT. We're still lamenting this never ending night mare. But the big Flames news of the week is that rookie sensation Dustin Wolf finished second in Calder Trophy voting. The league is officially on notice: Wolf is here to save the Flames.Have a good week, buddies.Go Panthers.
  • 35. Should the Flames go big game hunting? (no)

    37:32||Season 6, Ep. 35
    Hey, buddies. Our palls over at Daily Faceoff were speculating Conny and the Flames may be looking to go big in the UFA market this off-season. While this is unlikely, since we have nothing better do while we're relegated to benchwarming the Panthers and Oilers, we thought we'd talk about the idea of adding in free agency and our preferences for Flames moves this summer.Have a good one, boys. Keep your chin up and let's go Panthers.
  • 34. Painful playoff recap (save us, Florida)

    51:18||Season 6, Ep. 34
    Ugh. Once again the Greasers seem destined for the finals. Meanwhile we're just sitting on the sideline. Today we're begrudgingly talking about the Oilers domination of the Stars and hoping the Panthers have an answer (again). We're also hoping the Oilers success lights a fire under the Flames organization to start getting serious about producing a Cup contending club and discussing how close / far the Flames are to being a contender. Go Flames (and Panthers) Go.
