About this episode
On Hour 2 of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg and Logan Gordon are joined by FloHockey prospects expert Chris Peters to share his thoughts on the 2026 NHL Draft. Peters discusses when Carson Carels could begin seeing NHL minutes, what he projects to become, and how important he may be to the Calgary Flames’ future. The conversation then shifts to other top prospects, including how Viggo Björck could fit in with Winnipeg and what 30th overall pick Jack Hextall will need to focus on as he continues his development!
(25:38) Pat and Logan react to the Flames extending qualifying offers to three of their ten restricted free agents, leaving the remaining seven to become unrestricted. The guys discuss why Calgary may have chosen not to extend those offers, and look ahead to where pending free agents Justin Kirkland and Ryan Lomberg could land if they don’t re-sign with the team!
