Randy Carlyle has interviewed for the Calgary Flames' vacant head coach position, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman stated in his latest 30 Thoughts column.

Carlyle met with the Flames as well as the Anaheim Ducks - which was expected, according to Darren Dreger - on Tuesday at the NHL combine, according to Friedman.

The 60-year-old is the latest to interview for the position as Friedman notes the Flames interviewed former Edmonton Oilers head coach Ralph Krueger at the World Championship last month.

Carlyle signing in Calgary would see a reunion with president of hockey operations Brian Burke, who hired Carlyle as the Toronto Maple Leafs head coach when Burke was the club's general manager in 2012.
