2025 Free Agency Rundown
For the most part, Calgary’s roster is expected to remain the same as last season. They have had three departures thus far into the 2025 off-season as Anthony Mantha, Dan Vladar, and Jonathan Aspirot have all departed from the team. In terms of additions, the Flames signed Ivan Prosvetov to replace Vladar as Wolf’s backup, and also added former Canucks defenceman Nick Cicek.

2025–26 Season Series Preview
The Flames are in a similar situation to the Canucks right now while simultaneously being in the same division. The Pacific Division’s talent is top-heavy, with their mid-level playoff spots likely going to a team like Vancouver or Calgary. Both teams have seen minimal movement so far during the off-season, though Vancouver lost some bottom-six players in Pius Suter and Dakota Joshua, while Calgary lost backup goaltender Vladar and speedy winger Anthony Mantha. Last season’s home-opener was the infamous game in which the Canucks gave up a 4–1 lead and allowed Calgary to win 6–5 in overtime. With both of their home games against the Flames coming early on in the season, Vancouver will look to snag four points from a division rival early on.
