About this episode
On hour two of Flames Talk, the focus turns to the strategy of the 2026 NHL Draft now that the draft position is officially locked in. Pat Steinberg and Logan Gordon explore the "now what?" of the situation, debating whether Craig Conroy should look to package assets—including the Vegas first-round pick and a stockpile of second-rounders—to move back up into the top three. They weigh the pros and cons of moving down to collect more picks versus standing pat to take a franchise-altering defenseman or center at six.
(25:56) Our Pacific Division Insider, Jonathan Davis from the NHL Network joins the program to break down a busy week across the division. He shares his breakdown of Game 1 between the Ducks and the Golden Knights, his reaction to seeing the San Jose Sharks land another top pick in the draft, and more!
