What Blueline Veterans Are Here for the Long Haul?

On hour one of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg and Logan Gordon take a deep dive into the most overhauled position on the roster: the blueline. With foundational pillars like MacKenzie Weegar and Rasmus Andersson traded away, and Joel Hanley sidelined for the year, the guys look at the current defensive landscape. They evaluate the long-term fit of Kevin Bahl, the veteran stability provided by Zach Whitecloud and Olli Maatta, and where Brayden Pachal fits into the puzzle. (29:49) On the Daily Flames Roundtable with Alongside Derek Wills, the guys preview tonight’s matchup in Dallas! They discuss what they want to see from Aydar Suniev as he makes his highly anticipated season debut against the Stars and debate why a loaded Dallas team has struggled to get over the hump in recent playoff runs.
