On hour one of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg is joined by Frank Seravalli to dig into the Flames’ future. Are they primed to take a step forward or are things trending the other way? Frank also weighs in on the Oilers-Stars series, Florida’s dominance, Brendan Shanahan's exit in Toronto, and why Jeff Blashill landed in Chicago. Updates on the open coaching jobs in Boston, Seattle, and Pittsburgh round out the chat.

(24:32) Plus, Pat and Logan Gordon dive into the Conference Final storylines, including whether we’re heading toward a rematch of last year’s Stanley Cup Final. Florida can punch their ticket Monday night, and Edmonton has grabbed momentum with back-to-back wins to go up 2-1 on Dallas. The guys break down Stuart Skinner’s bounce-back, the Oilers’ resilience, and whether the Stars are running out of runway. Pat and Logan also touch on Carolina’s playoff wall, the Morin vs. Basha matchup at the Memorial Cup, and Team USA’s gold medal moment at Worlds—with a pretty awesome nod to Johnny Gaudreau.
