Summary
On hour two of Flames Talk, it is time for the Friday Flames Talk Summer Mailbag. Pat spends the full hour flying solo and diving into a jam-packed text line at 960960 to answer your questions on a variety of offseason topics. With the draft lottery now in the rearview mirror, the conversation centers on who the Flames should target with the sixth overall selection and how the team might use its surplus of picks to reshape the roster. Pat tackles listener questions on potential trade candidates, free agency priorities, and how the organization's philosophy might shift following the lottery results. Whether it's draft strategy or long-term outlook, no topic is off-limits as we clear out the mailbag to head into the weekend.
