At that point, they have some well-sought-after trade candidates. Not the least of which is Nazem Kadri.  We've heard all season long, however, that the gritty, two-way center is happy in Calgary and isn't thinking about moving on.

Flames May Not Be Able To Resist Offers For Veteran

The Calgary Flames are 30th in the NHL and have some work to do if they want to get back into the playoff race.

Canadiens vs. Flames Top Six Minutes: A career night for Alexandre Texier

First period No worries about a letdown here as the Canadiens come out firing. Three shots in the opening 40 seconds. A bit of a lull after the opening couple of minutes, but it’s still clear that Montreal is the better team. They don’t always prove that in this type of matchup. Owen Beck is playing very well tonight, and just fired a mid-range shot off the post. He knows his days in the NHL on this recall stint are probably numbered.

5 Upcoming Free Agents Flames Should Move On From

The Calgary Flames are in a position where it makes sense for them to sell at one point this season. There are a number of free agents coming up, whether they be RFAs or UFAs, but players that the team will have to make decisions on. The Flames have talent pushing into the NHL too, so that has to be kept in mind when determining the future of older and/or less productive players.
