Arsenii Sergeev Gets the Start in Game 82!

On hour one of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg and Logan Gordon set the stage for Game 82 at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Following the Rangers' win on Wednesday, the door is wide open for the Flames to drop to 30th overall in the standings with a loss of any kind—securing better lottery odds in the process. The guys break down the surprise lineup changes, starting with Arsenii Sergeev getting an emergency recall and his first NHL start after Devin Cooley fell ill. They also discuss the "hockey player" mentality of Zach Whitecloud, who is playing through a significant mouth injury with a full cage, and the return of Ryan Strome and Matt Coronato to the finale. (30:26) On the Daily Flames Roundtable with Derek Wills, the crew reacts to the Sergeev news and wraps up Devin Cooley’s season. They evaluate Cooley's impact since joining the organization and discuss the "cool factor" of seeing a 2021 seventh-round pick make his NHL debut alongside fellow seventh-rounder Dustin Wolf in the season's final game.
