There are only 62 days until the season starts, which is basically only two months! Oh, how the time has flown. It feels like just yesterday the Calgary Flames failed to qualify for the post-season after trading all their draft picks to acquire assets to take them all the way to the end.
With 62 days left, there are three players in Flames history who have worn #62: Rico Fata, Kris Chucko, and Andrei Nazarov. We went with Nazarov aka “The Russian Bear” because we’re doing somewhat of a draft history type of series this off-season (stay tuned for that), and Fata and Chucko were both drafted by the Flames.
