Pospisil was suspended for three games after delivering a high hit on Seattle Kraken defenseman Vince Dunn. The Slovak-born Pospisil has six goals and nine assists in 45 games this season and will return to the Flames' lineup on Tuesday against the Colorado Avalanche.



Okhotyuk will help fill out a Flames' defensive core that is less robust than it was a few weeks ago after dealing away Chris Tanev and Noah Hanifin in trades before the deadline. The 23-year-old Okhotyuk registered eight points (1G / 7A), 126 hits, and 72 blocks while averaging 16:27 time-on-ice through 43 games with the San Jose Sharks.

The Blue Jackets opted for an 11-forward, seven-defensemen formation on Tuesday but will return to the traditional formation on Thursday as Bean will be a healthy scratch, allowing Kiril Marchenko to draw back into the lineup. Bean played 13:26 time-on-ice on Tuesday, tallying one assist.

Miromanov was acquired by Calgary earlier on Wednesday as part of the Noah Hanifin deal and has signed a two-year, $2.5 million contract extension with the Flames. The 26-year-old Russian defensemen had only appeared in four games with Vegas in 2023-24 after missing most of the season due to an undisclosed injury, failing to pick up a point while collecting six SOG and a -2 plus/minus.

The Flames gave up Noah Hanifin to get Miromanov, a conditional 2025 first-round pick and a conditional third-round pick from the Golden Knights. Calgary retained 50 percent of Hanifin's contract. Miromanov, who will be an RFA at the end of the season, has played in just four NHL games this season, but has seven points (2G / 5A) in 29 career NHL games (all with Vegas).

Vince Dunn exited the third period of Monday's game against the Flames after suffering the hit from Pospisil and is yet to return to the lineup, dealing with what the team has deemed to be an upper-body injury. Pospisil has six goals and nine assists in 45 games this season and will be eligible to return to the Flames' lineup for next Tuesday's game against the Avalanche.

With Zary sidelined due to an upper-body injury, the Flames recalled Matt Coronato from the Calgary Wranglers (AHL) on Monday. Zary has been effective with the Flames this season and has three points (0G / 3A), five shots, and six hits in his last four games.

Connor Zary is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, prompting the Flames to recall Coronato from the Wranglers (AHL). Coronato was the 13th overall pick of the Flames in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and had a 15-game stint with the team earlier this season, but has spent most of his time in the AHL, scoring 42 points (15G / 27A) in 40 games with the Wranglers.

Grushnikov was a second-round pick (No.48 overall) of the Stars in 2021. The 20-year-old Russian defenseman turned pro at the end of his 2023 season with the Hamilton Bulldogs (OHL) and has five points (1G / 4A) in 45 AHL games since. He was acquired via trade on Wednesday in a move that saw Chris Tanev dealt to the Dallas Stars.

Jacob MacDonald will replace Okhotyuk on Monday against the Vegas Golden Knights. In 39 games this season, Okhotyuk has seven points (1G / 6A), 117 hits, and 71 blocks.



Wolf saw his first NHL action in over two months on Thursday after being recalled earlier this week to replace Dan Vladar (IR). The Flames goaltending prospect fared poorly, allowing six goals on 31 shots (.806 SV%) in a 6-3 loss to the bottom-dwelling San Jose Sharks. Most of Wolf's heavy lifting this season has been done with the Wranglers, where he has been sensational this season, posting a 2.27 GAA and .927 SV% in 28 games (18-7-2).
