On hour one of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg and Logan Gordon dive into the non-draft trade market following Nick Kypreos’ first summer trade board. To no surprise, Blake Coleman is the premier Flames asset generating buzz, and Pat and Logan break down the heavy interest in Coleman from the trade deadline, and explain how a lack of salary retention stalled a deal. With Coleman heading into the final year of his contract and looking for long-term security, the guys debate if Craig Conroy should grant a four-to-five-year extension or cash in on the winger's high trade value. They also look at other potential trade chips, including Morgan Frost, and depth defensemen Joel Hanley and Brayden Pachal, who are facing a numbers game on the blueline.

() Jonathan Davis from the NHL Network joins the program to react to a stunning Stanley Cup Playoffs development: the Vegas Golden Knights sweeping the Colorado Avalanche to advance to the Stanley Cup Final. JD discusses the undeniable John Tortorella effect in Vegas, Mitch Marner’s dominant postseason performance, and where the Avalanche go from here. Plus, they dive into the coaching carousel with Jay Woodcroft linked to Toronto and Los Angeles, and evaluate Leo Carlsson’s looming RFA contract situation in Anaheim.
