- Flames goaltender Dustin Wolf finished second in Calder Trophy voting last season behind winner Lane Hutson.
- In 2024-25, the Flames allowed the fifth-fewest goals against per 60 minutes 5-on-5 (2.08)
- The Flames have the 18th and 32nd picks in the 2025 NHL Draft.
The Calgary Flames exceeded expectations in 2025-26, finishing with 96 points, the same as the St. Louis Blues, who secured the second wild-card playoff berth.
Had the Blues not finished on an NHL-best 13-2-1 run, the Flames would have made the playoffs despite being in the midst of a rebuild. Much of their success was thanks to Calder Trophy finalist Dustin Wolf and his season-long heroics.
While terrific throughout, he was by no means the lone wolf responsible for Calgary’s impressive campaign.
Nazem Kadri spearheaded the attack and took on the primary leadership role; Jonathan Huberdeau resembled his former self; MacKenzie Weegar was considered for Team Canada at the Four Nations Face-Off, while an impressive youth movement continued.
It’s still early, but the 2025-26 campaign is chock-full of promise for this upstart Flames team. However, they’ll require Wolf to be just as good to contend for a coveted playoff spot.
Calgary Flames Stanley Cup Odds
The Calgary Flames’ Stanley Cup odds (+9000) are tied for the 10th longest with the Nashville Predators.
No Canadian team has longer odds than the Flames, who are trading behind the Montreal Canadiens (+8000).
The Flames’ +9000 hockey odds carry an implied win probability of 1.1%. Their only Stanley Cup victory came in 1989 when they defeated the Canadiens in six games.
Calgary Flames Western Conference Odds
The Flames’ Western Conference odds at the BetMGM online sportsbook (+4000) are tied for the fifth-longest with the Predators.
Only the Anaheim Ducks (+8000), Seattle Kraken (+15000), Chicago Blackhawks (+25000), and San Jose Sharks (+25000) are less likely to represent the Western Conference in the final.
Calgary last won the West in 2004 when it lost in the Stanley Cup Final to the Tampa Bay Lightning in an epic seven-game showdown. The Flames had a goal disallowed in overtime of Game 6 that would have handed them their second Stanley Cup.
Calgary Flames Pacific Division Odds
The Flames have the fourth-longest Pacific Division odds (+1000).
Back-to-back finalist Edmonton Oilers lead the way (+200), with the Vegas Golden Knights (+240), Los Angeles Kings (+310), and Vancouver Canucks (+800) among the four favourites.
Calgary’s +1000 odds imply a 9.09% win probability, and the Flames last won the Pacific Division in 2021-22 when back-to-back Stanley Cup winner Matthew Tkachuk plied his trade in the Stampede City.
