News Roundup

Zayne Parekh becomes first-ever OHL defenceman with multiple 30-goal seasons

The Calgary Flames might just have a future star on their hands in Zayne Parekh.
The 19-year-old made history with the OHL’s Saginaw Spirit on Sunday afternoon, scoring his 30th goal of the 2024-25 season midway to become the first defenceman in league history to reach that mark multiple times.

FlamesNation Mailbag: Closing in on the NHL trade deadline

The NHL’s trade deadline for the 2024-25 season is this coming Friday at 1 p.m. MT. It’s the last chance for clubs to make substantial changes to their rosters before the end of the season – and for some teams, before the playoffs.
The Calgary Flames remain, improbably, in the playoff mix. As we await the final league-wide moves, let’s dive into the mailbag!

Hoping that Frost and Farabee are motivated to show up Torts with some highlight reel goals...or any goals....or a couple of good shots on goal....anything, please.

If the Flames can’t win this one, I hope any talk of adding some short term help (depth D) ends.

I see a team working hard and losing. I think we can do that without some of the vets.

They also have the vacant look on their faces like they don’t know the answer.

The answer is drive the net, play north south, put the puck somewhere safe and check. All the hard things that old decrepit bodies and soft players don’t like to do. No more stupid blind passes, middle of the ice plays, getting the puck 3 feet out of the zone and then giving it back to the opposition with cute intercepted passes.

This is likely going to be two one-legged guys at an ass-kicking contest. Mistakes are when hockey gets fun!

Our defence is awful, our offence is anemic but our goalies are playing well. So...we've got that going for us...which is nice.

I just can’t hate that guy.

If we get four and he gets three that would be OK.

Where is there talk of adding short-term help? Any rumored players of interest are not rentals.

Conroy says he is looking to add, to help the team’s playoff push, with guys under 26.

The only players fitting that description that are available are on short contracts, or that are underplaying their contracts (Farabee, Cozens).

Maybe ‘mid-term’ is better, but I don’t see a Carlo for example as being part of the long term success of the Flames.

Flames are early enough in this rebuild that they should be thinking about the contender that will hopefully be ready in 4-5 years rather than the mid team that’s being held up by outstanding goaltending right now.

Zary really should have had a conditioning stint or something before getting back into the Flames lineup.

At this point, I'd love the Flames to win and push for that WC spot.
But if they lose this game, they might be better served going back to a goalie rotation and giving AHL guys a tryout.

I don't want to blame Huska but I'm not sure he deserves credit either. They lack talent but work hard. Their goal tending is good and everything else is bad. I don't think Huska is choosing the best players and combinations. I don't understand why Farabee in particular continues to be a lock for top 9, pp time or even in the line-up consistently.
