## Resource

The Calgary Flames’ penalty kill was their unsung hero last season, surging to second in shorthanded goals and near the top ten in kill success after Yan Kuznetsov’s arrival. With key departures like Rasmus Andersson and MacKenzie Weegar, continuity is crucial — but veterans like Mikael Backlund and rising stars like Joel Farabee and Samuel Honzek could carry the load. Can this revamped unit replicate last year’s intensity and discipline? The answer might just be the difference-maker for a young, rebuilding Flames team.
