On hour two of Flames Talk, Pat Steinberg and Eric Francis break down a rough stretch for the Calgary Flames, who have dropped four straight and allowed 17 goals in that span. Are playoff hopes slipping away, and what does this losing skid mean for Craig Conroy’s trade plans ahead of the Olympic break? Plus, the guys dive into the latest on Blake Coleman’s injury scare and why Rasmus Andersson could be the first domino to fall in a busy trade season.

(31:25) Pat and Eric turn their attention to Zayne Parekh, the Flames’ most talked-about prospect. From his World Juniors performance and headline-making comments to his recent injury and development plan, the guys break down why Calgary is being extra cautious and what his path back to the NHL could look like. Plus, what does his situation reveal about the team’s long-term strategy?
