## Resource

Calgary Flames face pivotal decisions as draft day could redefine the franchise’s long-term future down the middle. Can taking a swing on top center prospects like Viggo Björck or Caleb Malhotra solve Calgary’s perennial depth issues, or will the team’s defensive riches grow with another blue line addition? We spotlight the high stakes at pick No. 6, the allure of elite centers, and why stacking assets at center could shape the Flames’ identity for years.
