  • Entertaining and Sharp

    If you get past Pinder’s arrogance, his analytical strategy is interesting. I’ve know Rhett since he was 15. He was a true pro as a player, sharp wit and great guy. Had the pleasure of working close to Boomer for years. Wonderful moderator. Quality announcer with a fantastic sense of humour. No one close to these guys in Western Canada. Now if he can continue to work on

  • The boys are the best. Do you love the Calgary Flames and want real discussions about the team and the trajectory? This is for you. Plus, they also have a lot of fun (and spirited debates lol).

    Best Flames podcast by a country mile.

    I used to listen to these guys all the time on the radio and I really miss them. I finally googled where they went and found out they had this podcast. I've been listening to it all Christmas break. It's been amazing. Feels like old times. Party on Garth.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Boom Daddy Returns + Pat Steinberg Joins The Show | FN Barn Burner - October 20th, 2026
Q: How impressed or surprised are you by Jonathan Castagna after he was called up?
Steinberg says Castagna has handled defensive assignments and penalty-killing minutes well, shown strong faceoff and two-way play, and earned the coach's trust. His performance suggests he could become a reliable third-line center.
Boom Daddy Returns + Pat Steinberg Joins The Show | FN Barn Burner - October 20th, 2026
Q: How concerned are you about the Flames' early-season performance and their uneven effort?
Pat Steinberg says Calgary has shown its desired work ethic in two wins, but must sustain that effort because it lacks the talent to win consistently otherwise. He expects the team to struggle to score and sees those hard-fought games as its best chance to stay competitive.
The Battle Of Alberta Ft. Brent Krahn | FN Barn Burner - October 28th, 2026
Q: What's your coaching philosophy? Can you bench kids at that age? And are they all stupid?
Krahn describes coaching U18 players as a balance: keep instructions brief, focus on their shifts and decisions, and remember that the players are still children even when they are expected to act like adults.
The Battle Of Alberta Ft. Brent Krahn | FN Barn Burner - October 28th, 2026
Q: What did you think of those shots? Like I'm not a goaltender. Anytime it goes in, you're like, oh, what a shot. Was it misplayed by Bobrovsky or were those?
Krahn says both goals were well placed, but Sergei Bobrovsky was too wide and low on each, and likely would have wanted both saves back.
The Minnesota Wild Ft. Michael Russo | FN Barn Burner - October 22nd, 2026
Q: Why haven't the Wild and Detroit got this figured out?
Russo says Minnesota has offered a futures-based package, but Detroit wants players who can contribute now and has not been sufficiently interested in the Wild's offer. A third team could help bridge the gap.
