We don’t know who will be on the team yet, but whoever is on the 2022-23 Calgary Flames will play eight preseason games come September. The Flames unveiled their preseason schedule for next season starting with split-squad games against the Vancouver Canucks on September 25. In total, the Flames will have an even split with four home and four road pre-season games ending October 7 against the Jets.
What these pending issues all boil down to is cap space, meaning if general manager Brad Treliving hopes to bring all four mentioned back into the fold, he will have to shed some salary from his current roster. One option that many believe is a likely trade target is Sean Monahan, who has one year remaining on his contract with a cap hit of $6.375 million. As everyone is well aware, the 27-year-old has struggled over the past three seasons, mainly due to injuries.
Most players projected to go in the first three rounds get selected, while it’s more of a roll of the dice for the rest over the final four rounds
