Forwards Matt Coronato<\/a>, 23, Yegor Sharangovich<\/a>, 28, Joel Farabee<\/a>, 26, Morgan Frost<\/a>, 27, Connor Zary<\/a>, 24, Martin Pospisil<\/a>, 26, Adam Klapka<\/a>, 25, Matvei Gridin<\/a>, 20, and Samuel Honzek<\/a>, 21, will be asked to take on bigger roles this season. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Calgary was the lowest-scoring team in the NHL last season, averaging 2.54 goals per game. It did not have a single player get more than 45 points.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the things we talked about is to give those other guys, the younger guys those minutes that Coleman won\u2019t be getting now and the situations, because he played power play, penalty kill, and even strength,\u201d Conroy said. \u201cSo, someone is going to get those minutes and that\u2019s what it\u2019s all about, giving opportunities to those young guys to see if they can do, and hopefully, they all can. And I know they\u2019re going to be hungry to try and steal that ice time too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the struggles last season, the outlook is bright for the Flames with an abundance of young talent in their system.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Along with the younger players already on the roster, Calgary has talented forwards Jonathan Castagna<\/a>, 21, Theo Stockselius<\/a>, 19, Tyson Gross<\/a>, 23, and defensemen Axel Hurtig<\/a>, 21, Abram Wiebe<\/a>, 22, and Hunter Brzustewicz<\/a>, 21, knocking on the door.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Flames are also excited about goalie Tobias Trejbal<\/a>, who was selected in the second round (No. 42) of the 2026 NHL Draft. The 18-year-old will have plenty of time to develop behind franchise goalie Dustin Wolf, who is entering his third full season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI think to see the skill and the skating and just the amount of prospects we have, even the guys that we drafted last year and the growth they\u2019ve already taken, and where we\u2019re going to be in another year with those guys, it\u2019s going to be exciting,\u201d Conroy said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Forwards Matt Coronato, 23, Yegor Sharangovich, 28, Joel Farabee, 26, Morgan Frost, 27, Connor Zary, 24, Martin Pospisil,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":845381,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[433],"tags":[49,48,448,82],"class_list":["post-845380","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/845380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=845380"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/845380\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/845381"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=845380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=845380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=845380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
