Default Fireside Chat Podcast Season 10

We're back for Season 10 of Fireside Chat and will update this thread each week as a new episode comes out.


Episode 268: Good? Or Good For The Pacific Division?
The Calgary Flames are in the middle of their 8 game exhibition schedule prior to the 2021-2022 season kicking off. The team has a new look this year with the departure of Mark Giordano and the additions of Blake Coleman, Nikita Zadorov and others but the team still feels like it’s missing a piece or two. We give our thoughts on all the new additions and where they fit into the lineup as well as try to predict who will and won’t be in the lineup on opening day. We have questions about the roster and how good this team is and if they’ll be a good team this year, or a good team only in a weaker Pacific Division?

Episode Episode 269: Finally A Team Identity

The 2021-2022 kicks off and for as long as we can remember, the Calgary Flames enter this season with a team identity under Daryl Sutter. Goals are likely going to be hard to come by for the Flames, but they’re going to be a hard team to play against. This week we discuss what the Calgary Flames will look like this season, if Darryl Sutter can get more out of this roster than they appear to have on paper and what their playoff potential is. As well, we do our annual season predictions as we look ahead to what this season might hold for the team in various areas.

Episode 270: 12 Season Opener Losses In A RowAnother season, another season opener loss. The Flames dropped their first two games of the year and we chat about how the lineup looks and what changes we expect for five game road trip. and why this trip could be good for the Flames. Are the two early losses a sign of what’s to come, or just another slow start for the Flames?


Did you know Harvey The Hound is eligible to be entered into the Mascot Hall of Fame? We found out some interesting facts about Harvey we never knew as part of his hall of fame entry, and we try to see how many other NHL mascots we can name.

Episode 271: Winning In October? Really?
The Flames are riding high in a four-game win streak on the road which has put them second in the Pacific Division. The Flames usually start the season poorly and the team didn’t have a four-game win streak all last year, so we discuss what has changed and what the team will need to do to continue this success.

Episode 272: Talkin’ Eichel
It feels like every Flames media outlet needs to talk Jack Eichel to Calgary, and this is our turn. Should the Flames trade Matthew Tkachuk to acquire Jack Eichel? Would Buffalo take Sean Monahan who is injured and playing in our bottom 6? And if so what else would we need to give up? Is Calgary even in the running or are they just being used to get leverage over Vegas? We don’t have any of these answers but we’re sure going to have fun debating them and giving our thoughts.

Episode 273: The Point Streak Finally Ends
We discuss if Sean Monahan as a fourth-line centre is sustainable, and when does he get traded if he stays in that role? The Flames can’t keep up the pace they’re on so the guys discuss what is going to give first and where we see the cracks starting to form. Plus, we give our thoughts on the Jack Eichel deal now that it’s all said and done. To end the show this week we look at how the Flames prospects in the AHL are doing so far this year.

Posted November 18, 2021

Plus we discuss Oliver Kylington’s emergence and what it could mean for Juuso Valimaki, possible trades to strengthen the lineup and what the asking price for these trades might be.

Episode 275: Hot Start Or A Good Team?
At the 20 game mark (one third of the season), the Calgary Flames are #1 in the Western Conference, and tied for #1 in the league. The guys try to answer one big question this episode in this episode. Have the Flames been lucky and got themselves off to a start that we can expect to see level off, or is this year’s Flames team really a goods team and realizing their potential?

Episode 276: The Valimaki Debate


The Calgary Flames end November as the top team in the Western Conference and the Flames identity is firmly established. This week the guys discuss the rumours that the Calgary Flames are interested in Jake Debrusk from Boston and what a reasonable return would be - and if the Flames should take a chance on Evander Kane.


With the recent news that Juuso Valimaki is waiver exempt (despite what we previously thought) the main discussion this week revolves around what the team should do with Valimaki - send him to the Stockton Heat, or keep him in the NHL to fight his way back into the lineup.

Episode 277: Who Is Dillon Dube?

After a rough road trip for the Flames, the guys discuss what the team needs to do to keep their good season going when they return home and debate what the upside of Dillon Dube is and where he fits into the lineup long term. With Adam Ruzicka drawing into the lineup the guys chat about what other young players might get a callup and why the AHL stars might not be the right guys to bring up now. Plus, coming back to last week's Juuso Valimaki discussion and his recent call up, do we expect him in the lineup? And is this call up permanent?

Episode 279: Evander Kane As A Flame?

The Flames haven’t played their “A” game since before the Christmas pause. The guys debare if we’re seeing the team slumping, or regressing to the what they are going to be this year? One of the biggest news items this week is that the Calgary Flames have reportedly been in talks with Evander Kane. The guys debate if Evander Kane is an asset worth taking a gable on this season to improve the line up without giving anything up? Can the Flames fix their lineup with callups from the Stockton Heat, or do they need to trade their way to fixes, and if they do what do they have to give up to do so? We answer these questions and more while we look ahead to the Trade Deadline and what changes we might make before then.

Episode 281: A Trip Down Memory Lane

The Flames played two games this week and the guys break down both of them and give their thoughts on the big 7-1 win over the St. Louis Blues. Dan has said for a while that you need to bring the right players up from Stockton to fill the right roles and the guys read an article from Ryan Pike breaking this down and what names should come up in what spots. Then the guys take a trip down memory lane as they look at the 21 former Calgary Flames who are heading to the 2022 Olympic Games.

The guys break down their thoughts on three players the Flames have been liked to - JT Miller, Conor Garland and Ben Chiarot, what the acquisition cost might be for each and if it'd be worth paying that price.

Episode 284: Tyler Toffoli Trade Talk

The Calgary Flames are riding high on a six game wining streak and everything seems to be looking good for the team right now. With Andrew Mangiapane, Blake Coleman and Mikael Backlund starting to heat up offensively, has it changed our preception on what the Flames need to do before the NHL Trade Deadline? And with Tyler Toffoli being rumoured to be of interest to the Calgary Flames – what would a reasonable return to aquire him and how would the team fit his long term contract into their salary cap going forward?

Episode 285: Welcome Tyler Toffoli

After the big Tyler Toffoli trade and three wins to put the team on a nine-game win streak, it's been a big week for the Flames! We recap the trade and if the Flames paid a reasonable price for Toffoli, this week's three wins and discuss if the Flames should name a captain before their playoff run this season, or stick with leadership by committee.

Episode 286: Home Is Where The Wins Are

With the Flames win streak come to an end we saw Dillon Dube and Adam Ruzicka out of the lineup against Minnesota. The guys debate Dillon's future in Calgary this season and beyond and if he fits a Darryl Sutter system. Then the guys look ahead to the March schedule and what the Flames have to do to get at least .500 in that month. Then we look even further ahead to the NHL Awards, and what players we think could be going home with hardware this year.

Episode 287 - Running Away With The Pacific Division

The Calgary Flames had an impressive week, beating two top teams in the Western Conference in the Minnesota Wild and Colorado Avalanche. The guys debate what this means for the Flames playoff chances and projections. Then we talk about if the Flames are using Tyler Toffoli as well as they could be, or if some lineup changes need to be made to get the most out of him. Then we wrap up the show talking about the Michael McNiven trade and what we think it means for the Flames leading up to the Trade Deadline.
