Flames ‘continuing to plug away' on contract negotiations with Dan Vladar, says Conroy
Article content Article content Is Vladar, who really seemed to find his groove after the 4 Nations Face-Off and continued to roll with a sparkling .950 save percentage in his four appearances at the world championship tournament, now wondering if another organization might view him as a potential starter or a platoon possibility? Article content Is he hoping for more playing time so he can showcase himself for a chance to represent his country at the 2026 Winter Olympics? Article content Is it simply a matter of finding some middle ground on term and dollar figure? Article content If Vladar does opt to test the market when free agency opens on July 1, he will be one of the most appealing options available, a guy who can offer a blend of experience and upside. Article content If the Flames need to go another route, the pickings are somewhat slim. Beyond Vladar, the list of soon-to-be UFAs in the crease is headlined by Jake Allen, Alexandar Georgiev, Ilya Samsonov and Vitek Vanecek, who just lifted the Stanley Cup as the No. 2 for the Florida Panthers. Article content Article content The Flames have also been mentioned as potential suitor for Ivan Prosvetov, who is looking to return from the KHL. Article content Also factoring in this conversation is whether there is internal belief that Devin Cooley can be part of the big-league plan. Cooley's contract upgrades to a one-way for this coming season, but there may be some second-guessing after his rollercoaster campaign with the Wranglers — a superb start that netted an invite to the AHL All-Star Classic and then a miserable finishing stretch.

2 Hamilton County cities land in top 10 for U.S. News & World Report's best places to live
Two Hamilton County cities are once again at the top of a best places to live list. This time, Carmel is ranked as the second-best place to live in the U.S. and Fishers is ranked fourth for 2025-26 by the U.S. News & World Report. U.S. News expanded its data to evaluate more than 850 cities, up from 150 cities in previous years, and published the top 250 cities on Tuesday. The publication weighed quality of education and health care, air quality, state economy and infrastructure, housing affordability, cost of living, crime rates, weather, unemployment rates and net migration when compiling this year's list. More rankings: Hamilton County city ranked best place to live in Indiana, with neighbors close behind The data came from U.S. News' internal resources and stats from several government agencies. Carmel secured second on the list for its high desirability, value and job market scores, and Fishers scored strongly in the same categories. Noblesville came in at 50th on the list. Other Indiana cities included Greenwood at 91st and Columbus at 92. Recently, Fishers was left off Livability's list of Best Places to Live, after ranking No. 4 the previous year, due to a change in how the site gathered its rankings.

Jake Allen's 34-save effort against his former team highlights Devils' win over Canadiens
MONTREAL — Jake Allen made 34 saves and shut out his former team as the New Jersey Devils beat the Montreal Canadiens 4-0 on Saturday. Allen, traded from Montreal to New Jersey at last season's deadline, denied Montreal's Owen Beck on a penalty shot with 15 seconds left to secure his fourth shutout of the season in his 20th start. Jesper Bratt and Jack Hughes each had a goal and an assist, and Paul Cotter and Luke Hughes also scored for New Jersey. Sam Montembeault stopped 18 shots for Montreal, which lost for the seventh time in eight games. Takeaways Devils: Allen beat Montreal for the second time in two weeks. He made 29 saves in a 4-3 overtime win over the Devils on Jan. 25. Canadiens: Regrouped after a slow start, but couldn't solve Allen. He slid across the crease to deny Cole Caufield late in the first period, and stopped Josh Anderson on a breakaway in the second. Key moment In-house announcer Michel Lacroix asked fans to respect the national anthems "despite recent events." Fans in arenas across Canada have booed the American national anthem, likely in response to a looming trade war between Canada and the United States, sparked by the threat of tariffs by President Donald Trump. Fans at the Bell Centre were mostly silent, with sporadic jeers, during the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner." The crowd sang along passionately during "O Canada." Key stat Bratt extended his point streak to eight games, posting two goals and 10 assists during the run. In three games against Montreal this season, he has four goals and three assists. Up next New Jersey begins a two-week break for the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament and returns to host Dallas on Feb. 22. Montreal hosts Tampa Bay on Sunday.
