Morgan Frost says he wants to remain with Flames long-term

What Happened

Calgary Flames centre Morgan Frost told Sportsnet he wants to remain with the organization long-term. Frost said he is happy in Calgary and sees an opportunity to play and grow with a young team. His comments came in a one-on-one interview with Sportsnet's Eric Francis. They follow Zach Whitecloud telling Sportsnet within the same fortnight that he wants to stay in Calgary.

Key Details

  • Frost is a centreman for the Calgary Flames.
  • Frost told Sportsnet he would love to stay in Calgary.
  • He cited opportunity with a young team as a reason.
  • Zach Whitecloud also said he wants to stay in Calgary.
  • Both declarations came within the same fortnight, per Sportsnet.
  • General manager Craig Conroy is described as pleased by the comments.

What It Means

The Flames have seen a steady stream of veterans seek exits over the past three years, according to Sportsnet, so public commitments from Frost and Whitecloud stand out. Frost's stance suggests he sees a role in Calgary's rebuild rather than pursuing a move elsewhere.
