Our pal Elliotte Friedman put together his latest edition of 31 Thoughts over at Sportsnet’s website. As you would expect, there were some Calgary Flames notes in there as well as an update on the upcoming 2021 NHL Draft.
Here’s Friedman on the Flames:
6. In Calgary’s search for right-handed shooters, there were conversations with Nashville, but, obviously, nothing happened.
7. I’m not convinced there would have been a coaching change in Calgary if Darryl Sutter wasn’t available. He and the Flames discussed the possibility of a reunion a few times in the last couple of years, but the timing was never right.
