Best time of the season! Most hope as a leaf fan I’ve felt since 2022.
Hey guys, they signed Ivan Prosvetov this past off season, heres what sportsnet wrote about him;
Prosvetov spent 2024-25 with CSKA Moscow of the KHL, earning a 20-16-2 record with a 2.32 GAA and a .920 save percentage in 38 regular-season outings. He went 2-3 in five playoff contests. Prosvetov has had limited success at the NHL level, but he turned a corner with a .921 save percentage over 21 games with AHL Colorado during the 2023-24 regular season. He'll be in contention for the backup goalie job in Calgary during training camp, though neither Prosvetov nor Devin Cooley should be expected to get much playing time behind Dustin Wolf.
It’s like a 90% chance the backup is Prosvetov is the backup, not Cooley. Flames are really high on him, and they’re less worried about Cooley getting claimed on waivers.
LET'S GO FLAMES GO!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍👍👍
I think Cooley is going to be a sleeper. It's just a feeling, but I think he is trending into a solid goalie. Flames have a lot of potential, they were dogs last year. At the very least, I think they will be fun to watch. Some of their players just seem undervalued across the league. Kirkland, Lomberg, Zary have the potential to make this team better than expected. Parehk might be a huge asset as well.
Flames win the west this year.
I think you guys have slightly over rated Vladar, He was good but not massively reliable at times
Andersson is not our top scoring/best defender
Not that it matters but why start the season previews with Calgary lol. Seems random
The Flames season depends almost 100% on what they get for Rasmus Andersson. If they get prospects and draft picks, then Nazem Kadri is almost certainly going to be traded shortly afterwards and they are in a full rebuild. On the other hand, if they make a hockey trade, then could still at least compete for a playoff spot.
