Draft Prep With NHL Central Scouting's Dan Marr!

On hour one of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg is joined by NHL Central Scouting Director Dan Marr with the 2026 NHL Draft just over a week away. Dan outlines what the final stretch looks like for Central Scouting after their rankings are released, how their evaluations evolve right up to draft day, his personal evaluations of some of the top prospects, and what teams are still working to finalize before selections are made.

(28:58) Pat and Logan Gordon breaks down the now-resolved conditions tied to the Rasmus Andersson trade, as Vegas falling short of the Stanley Cup locks in Calgary’s return. Pat walks through the details of the conditional picks, why the Flames still came out strong in the deal, and how Andersson performed with the Golden Knights — including a closer look at his playoff results and what his future could hold heading into free agency, before opening the textline.
