Calgary Flames’ offense sputters as Rasmus Andersson’s departure casts a shadow. Can the team rediscover its scoring touch before slipping further out of playoff contention? We spotlight Calgary’s mounting scoring woes, weighing the ripple effects of trading one of their top blue-line contributors and scrutinizing Nazem Kadri’s trade prospects amid a dwindling market.

Hear insights from Mikael Backlund and Ryan Huska as they address a lack of energy, poor execution, and missed opportunities in the recent loss to Evgeni Malkin and the Pittsburgh Penguins. Key topics include Jonathan Huberdeau’s injury and scratch from Wednesday's game, shot production trends, the looming challenge of the upcoming five-game slate featuring the Washington Capitals and Anaheim Ducks, and whether young talents like Matt Coronato can spark a turnaround. With fan morale fading and playoff hopes on the line, is it time to look to the draft, or can the Flames reignite their season?
