Cooley was riding a four-game winning streak, arguably amid the best stretch of his career, before suffering a lower-body injury that will forced him miss the last week and a half. The 29-year-old Cooley has a 2.69 GAA and .914 SV% in seven games (4-3-0) and should get an opportunity to prove himself between the pipes again.

Zary has spent most of the season in the AHL, where he suffered a knee injury. He will be out week-to-week after undergoing surgery. The 25-year-old Zary has shown some offensive promise in his first three seasons, but has struggled with consistency, ultimately leading to his early-season demotion to the AHL.

Othmann was injured in a fight in Calgary's previous game and will remain out of the lineup on Friday. The 23-year-old forward is averaging 9:20 time-on-ice, with zero points, seven penalty minutes, and 15 hits in six games.

Cooley was riding a four-game winning streak, arguably amid the best stretch of his career, before suffering a lower-body injury that will force him to miss some time. The 29-year-old Cooley has a 2.69 GAA and .914 SV% in seven games (4-3-0). Dustin Wolf should see most of the action during Cooley's absence, but the team also recalled Arsenii Sergeev from the Calgary Wranglers (AHL).

Othmann left Wednesday's game vs. Edmonton with an upper-body injury after a spirited tilt vs. Ty Emberson and will not return. The 24-year-old has appeared in six games but has yet to pick up his first point of the season while averaging just over 11 minutes of TOI per game.

Cooley entered Wednesday's contest vs. Edmonton with a four-game winning streak but was forced to leave down 1-0 at the start of the second period after Colten Dach made contact with him in his crease earlier in the game. It is unfortunate timing for the 29-year-old, who was not only taking the world by storm with his recent on-ice play, but had been everyone's favourite off-ice interview for the last week and a half.

Backlund has missed the past two games with an upper-body injury, but he could be an option on Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 37-year-old Swedish forward is averaging 17:44 time-on-ice and has two points (1G / 1A) in eight games this season.

Backlund has two points (1G / 1A) and 24 shots in eight games, but was absent from practice on Tuesday and will not play on Thursday. Ben Jones will slot into Calgary's lineup to replace Backlund.

Backlund has two points (1G / 1A) and 24 shots in eight games, but was absent from practice on Tuesday. It's unclear what his status if for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Wild but he is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

Honzek did not play in Calgary's previous game and will be out week-to-wee with a lower-body injury. The 21-year-old Slovak forward, the 16th overall pick in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, has zero points and a -4 plus/minus in four games this season.

Hanley made his season debut on Saturday in Vancouver but will be a healthy scratch on Sunday as Yan Kuznetsov returns to the lineup. Hanley appeared in 24 shifts in his debut, picking up a -2 plus/minus while logging 16:18 TOI.

Huberdeau has been out since February 4th of last season due to a hip injury and is not expected to be ready for the start of Calgary’s training camp. The 33-year-old has struggled since arriving in Calgary four years ago, averaging just 15.5 goals and 48.5 points after finishing above 90+ points twice while previously in Florida. Calgary is still hopeful to have Huberdeau healthy and ready for the regular season, but the 14-year pro is already behind the eight ball with the latest news.

Zary is reportedly a "little banged up" and as a result he will miss Thursday's season finale. Ryan Strome will slot into the lineup in his place.

Whitecloud was limited to 14:36 time-on-ice before exiting Calgary's previous game due to an upper-body injury, but he will be ready to play on Thursday in the team's final season of the game. The 29-year-old Whitecloud has been a good fit with Calgary since being acquired in a trade earlier this year, averaging 22:44 time-on-ice and scoring eight assists through 30 games.

Coronato will return from a one-game absence to suit up in Calgary's final game of the season. The 23-year-old forward has 44 points (18G / 26A) in 79 games this season. Tyson Gross will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Coronato's return.

Cooley is battling an illness and will not suit up for Calgary's final game of the season, resulting in Arsenii Sergeev being recalled from the Calgary Wranglers (AHL). The 2025-26 season was largely disappointing from the Flames, but Cooley's first season with the team was a bright spot, posting a solid 2.69 GAA and .909 SV% in 31 games (10-10-6).
