The fame will make life relatively easy for head coach Ryan Huska in training camp, because he already knows which players work well when he forms line combinations. Although he may have one or two tricks in his sleeve to start the 2025-26 campaign, this is what the lines of the Flames will probably look like for their season opener versus the Edmonton Oilers on 8 October.
FLAMS LIME LIME
Jonathan Huberdau – Nazem Kadri – Connor Zary
The Flames seemed to find magic when they put Jonathan Huberdeau and Nazem Kadri last season. The two Had great chemistry And was by far the most dangerous duo of the Flames.
Zary giving a run with them will hopefully help him get some confidence, while he can also be trusted as the best defensive attacker of the group.
Blake Coleman – Mikael Backlund – Matt Coronato
Blake Coleman and Mikael Backlund have Worked well together for a while. They do not offer the biggest offensive figures, but they offer depth score and can also close things defensively. Adding the young and talented Matt Coronato to their line worked very well in the 2024-25 campaign.
Joel Farabee – Morgan Frost – Yegor Sharangovich
The two former Philadelphia Flyers-Joel Farabee and Morgan Frost wrestled in 2024-25, just like Yegor Sharangovich. This is a sort of redemption line, and also gives Farabee and Frost some fame and comfort because they still navigate as two of the latest faces in the team.
Ryan Lomberg – Martin Pospisil – Adam Klapka
Seen how good Adam Klapka the 2024-25 season closedHe probably has a good chance to be in the opening night line-up. The ability of Martin Pospisil to play in the middle makes that possible, while Ryan Lomberg will undoubtedly start the season on the left side of the fourth line.
Transmitted
The extra attacker who takes the season is Justin Kirkland, who was impressed in a limited piece last season, but remains very inexperienced. He will get his chance, although it may not be in the season opener.
The defensive combinations of the Flames
Top defensive couple: Kevin Bahl – Rasmus Andersson
Here things become confusing. There are Numerous trade rumors Around Rasmus Andersson. If Andersson starts with the 2025-26 season in Calgary, he expects that he spends the majority of his 5V5 time with Kevin Bahl-de Two played a lot and often in 2024-25.
Second defensive couple: Mackenzie Weegar – Zayne Parekh
It is also no guarantee That Zayne Parekh makes the flames selection This season. That said, it’s hard to imagine that he goes back to the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) in view of his strong versions in the last two seasons. If he cracks the line, combines him with the best general defender of the Flames in Mackenzie Weegar (who can play both parties) seems to be the ideal fit.
Third defensive couple: Joel Hanley – Brayden Pachal
Many would like to see Joel Hanley again together with Weegar. Although that could happen, it seems safer to place him at Brayden Pachal than with Parekh. This will probably change as the season progresses, of course, but fans have to expect Hanley and Pachal to see the third rule of Manning to start the 2025-26 campaign.
Remaining defenders
The flames have some good prospects on the back, including Yan Kuznetsov and Ilya Solovyov, who can insist on places, although, more likely, Jake Bean and Daniil Miromanov open the season as the seventh and eighth defenders. Bean’s place on the Roster for the entire season feels relatively safe, but Miromanov is a complete joker sign after his struggles in 2024-25.
The references of the flames
Ruler chose to become a member of the Philadelphia Flyers With a two-year-old deal this season was out of season, which meant that General Manager (GM) had to find Craig Conroy a backup. He seems to have done this in Prosvetov. Of course we cannot forget the 28-year-old Devin Cooley, who looked as if he would be called the American Hockey League (AHL) MVP last season.

What is not up for discussion is who the starter will be. That place is from Dustin Wolf. The 24-year-old quickly made a name for himself with an excellent Rookie season in 2024-25, and has all the in wood to become one of the best in the industry.
The only question that remains is whether the flames will be better this season. The team missed the play-offs with a single point in 2024-25, but failed to make important changes in this summer. They can be in store for some regression and it is difficult to suggest that the current schedule has a good chance of making the play -offs.
