A new name shakes up the Calgary Flames’ NHL Draft outlook as Tynan Lawrence emerges as a potential No. 6 pick. Could this bold move fill Calgary’s long-standing need at center? We are joined by John Easthope of The Red Mile Rundown Podcast to debate whether the Flames should target Lawrence over prioritizing a top defenseman, diving into organizational needs, draft strategy, and the importance of building around high-ceiling talent such as Connor Zary.
Trade rumors swirl, from a Blake Coleman move to the dream scenario of packaging picks for San Jose’s No. 2 selection. Key topics include how the Flames can maintain a competitive culture during a rebuild, the realities of Jonathan Huberdeau’s hefty contract, and what lessons Calgary can draw from the Vegas Golden Knights’ relentless playoff run. Discover if the Flames’ path forward is all about the best player available, or something more calculated.

Should the Calgary Flames prioritize drafting a center or a defenseman at #6?

Viggo can play boyh C and wing
I hope Conroy doesn't try to move up in the draft……they'll grab a franchise player hopefully but LOTS of business 'should' be done over the real trade deadline……offseason!!!!! lol
I don't want a 3rd line center 6th overall, give me Bjorck or Carels instead
