Craig Conroy is doing whatever it takes to ensure his team stays competitive this year after their hot start, and he is actively looking to make a blockbuster move. <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/calgary-flames/gaudreau-family-sends-unforgettable-message-to-calgary-flames-fans-before-home-opener' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>The Calgary Flames</a> have burst out of the gate this season, setting the pace in the Pacific Division with four straight victories. While their wins against the Chicago Blackhawks and Philadelphia Flyers came against less formidable competition, they've also taken down strong teams like the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers. These early successes have stoked optimism within the management of the team, fuelling speculation that they might seek to add to their roster in a surprise playoff push. According to NHL insider Frank Seravalli, he reported that general manager Craig Conroy has already begun to explore possible options to bolster their center depth. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/RingOfFireCGY/status/1847097737478918240'> </a></blockquote></div> This possible pivot in strategy comes with <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/calgary-flames/calgary-flames-under-fire-for-controversial-signing-of-player-involved-in-neck-kicking-incident' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>the Flames reportedly eyeing</a> possible trade targets. Just days ago, a large contingent of NHL scouts were on hand for a game between the LA Kings and Toronto Maple Leafs, and it's likely the Flames had someone in the stands. Seravalli's reporting suggests the Flames may be one of those teams, although trades with the Kings and the Leafs may be difficult to come by. Local sports reporter Mike Gould has even gone as far as to mention Sabres center Dylan Cozens as a potential target for the Flames. The hot start in Calgary now makes them one of those teams that everybody wants to pay close attention to for the rest of the season. It's just a matter of seeing how they will hold up. An undefeated season is out of the question, but could they ride this wave toward a winning record and back to the playoffs after last year's disappointing sell-off? Additionally, how will their trade plans take shape? Earlier in the month, there were rumors of defenseman Rasmus Andersson being on the block, but the team's ongoing success could change those plans. But that's not fazing defenseman MacKenzie Weegar, who said all eyes are on the next game. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/Sportsnet/status/1846992676803301799'> </a></blockquote></div> The Flames have arguably become one of the more interesting teams in the league as the season has unfolded. <a href='https://www.bladeofsteel.com/nhl/trades/calgary-flames-looking-to-capitalize-off-their-hot-start-and-add-a-top-player-via-trade' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Every win ramps up the intrigue</a> for where this could all go next, whether this team sticks with what they have or starts to tinker with the lineup.
