On that same episode (415), Johnston and Emily Kaplan both confirm Calgary as being in on this.

I'm not sure I'd call the Flames super conservative in recent years. Both Dougie Hamilton trades were big moves. I guess if you expect big moves every year - then they've been conservative.
If the Flames think they will be good - this would be the year to make trades with a late first rounder and two second rounders in the draft.
