Boomer and Rhett are joined by Calgary Flames GM Craig Conroy for an in-depth conversation just days before the NHL Draft. Conroy shares his thoughts on this year's draft class, the growing debate between junior hockey and college hockey, and several prospects who could be on Calgary's radar including Carson Carels, Keaton Verhoff, Viggo Bjork and Caleb Malhotra. He also discusses who gets the final say on draft day, whether the Flames could move up the board, where the organization currently sits in its rebuild, and what it will take to build the next contending team in Calgary. The conversation also touches on Jarome Iginla, the Ruck brothers, expectations for next season, and an update on the Flames' new arena. After Craig signs off, the boys continue the Flames draft discussion, break down the latest storylines around the team and wrap things up with the Boomer Report. If you're a Flames fan looking for insight into the future of the organization, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Video Link: https://youtu.be/qoS-eykpFIAChapters0:00 Craig Conroy Joins The Show1:00 Craig On The NHL Draft4:00 Junior Hockey vs College Hockey12:00 Craig On Carson Carels14:00 Craig On Keaton Verhoff18:00 Craig On Viggo Bjork23:30 Craig On Caleb Malhotra26:30 Who Gets Final Say On Draft Day?28:00 Jarome Iginla vs Craig Conroy28:30 Could The Flames Move Up?33:00 Where Are The Flames In The Rebuild?34:30 The Ruck Brothers35:30 Flames New Arena Update37:30 More On The Ruck Brothers38:00 Expectations For Next Season40:00 What's Ahead This Week?43:00 Building The Next Contending Flames Team45:00 Craig Conroy Signs Off#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #calgaryflames CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8📲 Follow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fnbarnburner/X (Twitter): https://x.com/barnburnerfn?lang=en🎧 Listen on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/barn-burner-boomer-pinder-with-rhett-warrener/id1648562889Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Mc6Qd5U22R2zbMlQ7RxIiProducer: Jack Haverstock Hosted on Acast.
