What if the Flames Win the Draft Lottery?

On hour one of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg and Logan Gordon look ahead to what is arguably the most critical date in recent franchise history: the 2026 NHL Draft Lottery. With the Flames holding 95 out of 1,000 possible ball combinations—good for a 9.5% chance at the first overall pick—the guys weigh the franchise-altering potential of winning big on Tuesday. They debate who the Flames could or should take at number one, and number two overall, and what it would mean for the team to potentially land their highest pick in franchise history.

(35:15) The guys are joined by Tom Gazolla to wrap up a disappointing season for the Edmonton Oilers. Following their first-round exit at the hands of the Anaheim Ducks, the crew analyzes the "win now" pressure facing the Oilers' front office. They react to end-of-year comments from Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl and discuss the massive summer ahead as Edmonton tries to keep their championship window from slamming shut.
