We are starting to see leaks for next year's #NHL Hometown Remix jerseys. What do you think the likelihood is that the #Flames jersey pays homage to the Saddledome? Maybe stripes at the bottom in the shape of the roof?
Rasmus Andersson hasn't looked great since being traded to Vegas. Do you think they regret that trade?
Victor Olofsson will become the first player to wear 95 for the #Flames in a regular season game.
Ryan Strome will wear 22, and Victor Olofsson will wear 95 for the #Flames.
Now that you've had a day to reflect on the Weegar trade, how do you feel about it for the #Flames?
The #Flames went into this season with 5 guys wearing an "A" on their jerseys - Andersson, Weegar, Huberdeau, Coleman, and Kadri. Only 2 are left on the active roster. Do you expect anyone else to be given an "A" this season?
The NYR and OTT second round picks that the #Flames acquired yesterday will be very high picks in that round. You wonder what the #Flames would have to add to a deal to trade one of those and move up to a late first round pick.

Olli Maata will be wearing jersey number 3 for the #Flames.

Olli Maata has a $3,500,000 contract until the end of 2027-2028 (the same expiry as Whitecloud). He also has a 10 team no trade list.

More information is coming out about a MacKenzie Weegar trade to Utah. It sounds like a done deal. The #Flames are expected to get Olli Maatta, three 2026 2nd-round picks (NYR, OTT, UTH), and a prospect.
