Related Topics: Calgary Flames, Craig Conroy

The Calgary Flames development camp took place over the past few days, and with so many interesting names to keep an eye on, it was reportedly a great event that shone a light on some great prospects in the Flames organization. The two biggest names to watch were the Flames last two first-round draft picks in Samuel Honzek and Matt Coronato, and it appears that they both impressed, with the latter drawing the attention of a franchise legend.

According to a report, Special Advisor to the General Manager and Flames legend Jarome Iginla was impressed with Coronato, ending the camp with a message for the Flames top offensive prospect: “The one thing I notice is you never cheated a drill, you did everything at high pace, your work ethic was noticeable every day”.
