Andersson did not practice on Friday due to an illness but might not miss any game action as the Flames do not play until Sunday. Andersson only has two points (1G / 1A) in his last seven games but is averaging 25:08 time-on-ice and 2.6 shots per game.
Jake Bean will return to the lineup on Wednesday in favour of Andrew Peeke, who will be a healthy scratch. Bean has three points (1G / 2A), 42 shots, and 46 blocks while averaging 15:26 time-on-ice through 32 games this season and is expected to skate alongside Erik Gudbranson on the Blue Jackets' fourth defensive pair.
Bean is expected to be the odd-man out on Columbus' blue-line on Saturday with Damon Severson set to return from an oblique injury. Bean has one goal and two assists in 32 games this season.
Solovyov will sit in favour of Nick DeSimone on Tuesday night. Solovyov has zero goals and two assists in six games this season.
Calgary is on the second half of a tough 6-5 loss to Colorado Monday and will go with Dustin Wolf after Dan Vladar took the crease the night before. Wolf has had an up-and-down first four games to start 2023-24, with a 1-2-0 record, .900 SV% and 3.04 GAA. The rookie netminder draws the tough task of hosting Vegas Tuesday, who has won three straight and is tenth in the NHL in both goals for per game (3.31) and shots per game (32.2).
Coronato played most of the opening month with the Flames, tallying two points (1G / 1A) in 10 games, but has since fallen out of favour, playing his first game in over a month on Saturday. He has since been reassigned to the Calgary Wranglers (AHL), where he has 18 points (8G / 10A) in 14 games this season.
Kaedan Korczak will not play on Tuesday due to a lower-body injury, allowing Pachal to return to the lineup for the first time since November 25th. Pachal is averaging 15:22 time-on-ice through 13 games this season and has been held without a point in 12 straight.
Walker Duehr will be a healthy scratch on Thursday, allowing Pospisil to draw back into the lineup for the Flames. The Slovak-born Pospisil has five points (3G / 2A), averaging 13:09 time-on-ice, and 32 shots on goal through 14 games this season. He is expected to play on a line with Connor Zary and Nazem Kadri.
Wolf was recalled earlier this week after Jacob Markstrom suffered a fractured finger that will keep him out of the lineup for several weeks. Wolf began as the backup on Tuesday but entered the net in relief of Daniel Vladar early in the second period and went on to save 11 of 13 shots (.846 SV%) in an eventual 5-2 loss to the Minnesota Wild. Albeit unspectacular in his one full game with the Flames earlier this season, allowing four goals on 34 shots (.895 SV%) in a losing effort, the high-pedigree Wolf will have the opportunity to make a name for himself at the NHL level. With the Calgary Wranglers (AHL), Wolf has been excellent, boasting a 2.50 GAA and .920 SV% in 13 games (10-3-0).

Solovyov hasn't played since consecutive games on October 26th and 29th, his only two career NHL games, but will return to the Flames lineup on Tuesday as Dennis Gilbert will be a healthy scratch. In two games, Solovyov averaged 16:35 time-on-ice, had one block, and two hits.
Jacob Markstrom is out week-to-week with a fractured finger, resulting in the call-up of Dustin Wolf from the Calgary Wranglers of the AHL. Wolf was unspectacular in his one game with the Flames earlier this season, allowing four goals on 34 shots (.895 SV%) in a losing effort, but will likely get a deeper look with an extended stay with the team. With the Wranglers, Wolf has been excellent, boasting a 2.50 GAA and .920 SV% in 13 games (10-3-0).
