Kadri played 22:46 time-on-ice in yesterday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Montreal Canadiens, his second-highest total of the season. He was absent from practice on Thursday for maintenance but will not miss any time, remaining in the lineup for Friday's game against the Winnipeg Jets. The 35-year-old Kadri has four points (0G / 4A) in eight games this season.
Wolf put together arguably his best start of the 2025-26 season on Wednesday, saving 26 of 28 shots (.929 SV%), but was unable to shake the Flames' losing ways, falling 2-1 in overtime to the Montreal Canadiens, extending their losing skid to seven games (0-6-1). After finishing the 2024-25 season as the runner-up for the Calder Trophy, Wolf has struggled early this season, posting a 3.61 GAA and .875 SV% in seven games (1-5-1). The Flames enter Friday's contest as +121 road underdogs against a Winnipeg Jets team that was defeated 3-0 by the Seattle Kraken last night.
Yegor Sharangovich will draw back into Calgary's lineup on Friday against the Winnipeg Jets, sending Kirkland to the sidelines as a healthy scratch. The 29-year-old Kirkland scored eight points (2G / 6A) in a career-high 21 games last season. He has zero points through five games in 2025-26.
Justin Kirkland will be a healthy scratch on Friday against the Winnipeg Jets, allowing Sharangovich to return from a two-game absence. After a breakout first season with the Flames in 2023-24, scoring 59 points (31G / 28A), the 27-year-old Sharangovich has had trouble reclaiming that scoring touch. He is averaging 14:38 time-on-ice and has one point (0G / 1A) in six games this season.

Hunt has spent most of the previous three seasons in the AHL, but is no stranger to the NHL, with 235 career games, scoring 54 points (18G / 36A). The 29-year-old forward started the season with the Calgary Wranglers (AHL), where he scored six points (2G / 4A) in four games.

The Flames continue to struggle, riding a six-game losing skid (0-6-0), but continue to roll with Wolf, who will tend the twine on Wednesday against the Montreal Canadiens. Wolf has failed to live up to the high standards he set for himself as last season's runner-up for the Calder Trophy, but is coming off his best performance of the season, saving 25 of 27 shots (.926 SV%) in a 2-1 loss to the Winnipeg Jets. The 24-year-old Wolf has a 3.91 GAA and .866 SV% in six games (1-5-0). Calgary enters Wednesday's contest as +107 home underdogs against a 5-2-0 Montreal team.
With the integration of Zayne Parekh as a regular on the Flames blueline, Miromanov surfaced on waivers yesterday and will report to the Calgary Wranglers (AHL). The 28-year-old Miromanov played a career-high 44 games with the Flames last season, recording nine points (2G / 7A), 55 blocks, and 19 hits.
The Flames are off to a very disappointing 1-5-0 start to the 2025-26 season and will be test on Monday, hoping Wolf can shut the door against the Winnipeg Jets. Wolf was the runner-up for the Calder trophy last season but has struggled early this season. The 24-year-old goalie has an ugly 4.30 GAA and .854 SV% in five games this season (1-4-0). The Flames enter Monday's contest as +128 home underdogs against a Jets team riding a four-game winning streak.
To accommodate the season debut of Jonathan Huberdeau (undisclosed) Kirkland will return to the sidelines as a healthy scratch. The 29-year-old Kirkland played a career-high 21 games last season and scored eight points (2G / 6A). He has zero points through three games this season.
Gridin has been assigned to the Calgary Wranglers (AHL) in a move to help accommodate activating Jonathan Huberdeau (undisclosed) off of Injured Reserve. The 19-year-old Gridin made his NHL debut last week and has recorded one goal in four games with the Flames this season.
Huberdeau has not played Calgary's first five games due to an undisclosed injury, but he has been activated from Injured Reserve and is expected to draw into the lineup on Saturday against the Vegas Golden Knights. He is expected to suit up on a line with Nazem Kadri and Joel Farabee. The 32-year-old Huberdeau averaged 19:33 time-on-ice and had 62 points (28G / 34A) in 81 games last season, his most productive campaign with the Flames.
Kirkland will draw back in on Wednesday as the Flames opt to get some fresh legs into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Matvei Gridin will sit in his place.
Pachal will draw back in on Wednesday as the Flames opt to get some fresh legs into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Daniil Miromanov will sit in his place.
