Flames Wagon 🔥 | FN Barn Burner - October 26th, 2026

Why hasn't Theoren Fleury's No. 14 been retired by the Calgary Flames? Boomer, Pinder and Rhett Warrener dive into one of the longest-running debates in franchise history as they discuss Fleury's legacy, his relationship with the organization and whether it's finally time to put his jersey in the rafters. Fleury played 791 regular-season games for Calgary, recording 364 goals, 466 assists and 830 points while helping the Flames win the Stanley Cup in 1989. Despite being one of the greatest players in franchise history, his number has never officially been retired, and unlike Al MacInnis and Joe Nieuwendyk, he hasn't been recognized through the Forever a Flame program either. With Lanny McDonald, Mike Vernon, Jarome Iginla and Miikka Kiprusoff having their numbers retired, why is Fleury still missing? The boys discuss whether his accomplishments on the ice should be enough, how his complicated history with the organization factors into the conversation and whether the Calgary Flames should finally give Theo the recognition so many fans believe he deserves.

What's the plan for Jonathan Huberdeau and the Calgary Flames? Boomer, Pinder and Rhett Warrener discuss Huberdeau's future as the veteran forward returns to skating with the team while recovering from offseason hip surgery. With the Calgary Flames beginning to see contributions from their younger players, the boys question where Huberdeau fits into the lineup once he's healthy enough to return. Huberdeau is carrying a $10.5 million annual cap hit on an eight-year, $84 million contract, but should his salary guarantee him a spot in the everyday lineup? Would bringing him back mean taking valuable ice time away from a young player who deserves an opportunity to develop? The guys debate whether Calgary should prioritize its future over its highest-paid forward, what role Huberdeau could realistically play and whether the Flames might be better off keeping their current lineup together. As the organization continues to navigate its rebuild, the biggest question remains: what exactly is the plan for Jonathan Huberdeau?

Is the tank already over in Calgary? Boomer, Pinder and Rhett Warrener break down another impressive Calgary Flames victory after a 2-1 win over the Minnesota Wild, giving the Flames back-to-back wins against two of the NHL's better teams. After opening the 2026-27 season with five straight losses, Calgary has suddenly won three of its last four games, including a 3-2 victory over the defending Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes. Devin Cooley has been outstanding in net, stopping 34 shots against Carolina and another 36 against Minnesota, while the Flames' young players are starting to make a real impact. Aydar Suniev scored his third goal of the season against the Wild, Joel Farabee found the back of the net on the power play, and youngsters like Jonathan Castagna and Zayne Parekh are providing some much-needed energy. The boys discuss whether Ryan Huska's team is finally turning a corner, what these wins mean for Calgary's rebuild and whether the Flames might actually be better than everyone expected. With the Detroit Red Wings coming to town Saturday night, can Calgary make it three straight wins? Maybe this team isn't quite as bad as we thought!

Connor Hellebuyck is officially a New Jersey Devil! Boomer, Pinder and Rhett Warrener react to one of the biggest trades of the NHL season as the Winnipeg Jets finally move their franchise goaltender. The boys break down the full deal, which sends Dawson Mercer, Nico Daws, Nick Bjugstad, prospect Alexander Command and two draft picks to Winnipeg. Did the Jets get enough in return for a three-time Vezina Trophy winner? And does adding Hellebuyck immediately make New Jersey a serious Stanley Cup contender? After months of trade speculation, a public trade request and a suspension, the Hellebuyck saga has finally come to an end. The guys discuss what this means for both organizations, who came out ahead and how much better the Devils just became.
