The list of players on the Calgary Flames prospect roundup is only going to get smaller.
This is the Apr. 7–13 edition of the Flames prospect roundup, where we look at how Calgary Flames prospects did this past week, specifically those at the junior and college levels. The American Hockey League prospects have their own article in the Wranglers recaps.
Let’s take a look at the week that was!

Matvei Gridin

Matvei Girdin and the Shawinigan Cataractes started a best-of-seven series against the Sherbrooke Phœnix on Friday, defeating them 5-4 in Game 1. Gridin was held off the scoresheet and finished the game with a -2 and a shot on goal.
He had a better game in Saturday’s Game 2, picking up his fifth goal of the postseason in what was a 5-2 defeat to take a 2-0 series lead. Through seven games this postseason, Gridin has five goals and 11 points, fifth in Québec Maritimes Junior Hockey League point scoring and tied for third in goals.
There’s a solid chance that by this time next week, the series will be over. They’ll head to Sherbrooke for Games 3 and 4 on Tuesday and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. MT, respectively. If needed, Game 5 returns to Shawinigan on Friday at 5:00 p.m. MT and a potential Game 6 would be on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. MT.

Andrew Basha

It was reported by Medicine Hat News’ James Tubb that if the Medicine Hat Tigers go on a deep run, Andrew Basha could return to the lineup. Well, they’ve had a good start to the second round.
On Saturday, they defeated the Prince Albert Raiders 6-4 to take a 1-0 series lead. They followed that up on Sunday with a 5-4 overtime win thanks to Liam Ruck’s second goal of the postseason. Moreover, the consensus first overall pick in the 2026 draft, Gavin McKenna, scored a fantastic goal.
The Tigers have a chance to take a commanding 3-0 lead as the series shifts to Prince Albert on Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. MT. Game 4, also in Prince Albert, is the following day at 7:00 p.m. MT. If needed, Game 5 will return to Medicine Hat on Saturday at 4:00 p.m. MT.

After taking a 2-0 lead in Game 1, with one assist from the Flames’ prospect, the Frontenacs allowed six unanswered goals as the Colts took Game 1 by a score of 6-2. The Frontenacs even led Game 2 in the first period, and had the game tied up at 4-4 in the second period, but the Colts scored three unanswered goals to win that one 7-4. Battalgia had two assists in Game 2.
So far this postseason, Battaglia has a lone goal and eight assists in six games. The series shifts to Kingston for Games 3 and 4 on Tuesday and Thursday at 5:00 p.m. MT.

Arsenii Sergeev

All good things must come to an end, including Penn State and Arsenii Sergeev’s Cinderella run to the Frozen Four. Taking on Boston University, the powerhouse went up 2-0 on Sergeev, but they cut the lead early in the third period. Sadly, Penn State was unable to find the game-tying goal and an empty net with a minute left in the game sealed it.
Sergeev played to his usual standards, saving 30 of 32 shots for a .938 save percentage and 2.03 goals against average in the 3-1 loss. He finished his final collegiate season with a 19-9-4 record with a .919 save percentage and 2.54 goals against average.
On Monday, the Flames announced that Sergeev has signed his entry-level contract with them and will begin his professional career next season, likely with the American Hockey League’s Calgary Wranglers.
