Hello, and welcome to Talking Flames, your favorite hockey podcast covering everything you need to know about your Calgary Flames.

I'm your host, Ryan Hunt.

I'm Rhys Martin.

And, you know, we are just, like, right in the thick of the off-season right now.

And, like, our creative juices are pretty much out.

So-

They're dry

... yeah, it's so dry in there.

You, you wouldn't believe it.

Um, but we did find someone else who is, um, who does have the creative juices and aren't burnt out like us.

Um, [laughs] we brought Ben on, uh, to help us a little bit of off-season content.

My friend, how are you doing?

Oh, I'm doing awesome, Ryan.

Thank you for asking.

I'm excited to be on the podcast today.

Thank you for having me.

Hell yeah.

It's always a pleasure having you on, bro.

It's just, like, such a breath of fresh air, you know? I don't have to listen to, like, just Rhys talking in my ears throughout this whole thing, you know? It's nice.

I wouldn't want that either, yeah.

[laughs] Um, so yeah, Ben whipped up some rapid fire questions for us.

He hasn't really revealed-

We don't know what they are, yeah

... yeah, he hasn't really revealed much about them.

Like, he has a pencil in hand right now.

He's, like, refining them and stuff like that.

I'm a little bit scared.

Um, but before we get into that, there are some things on the docket, things that have happened in the past week or so.
