Hanley (undisclosed) isn't available Thursday versus San Jose, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
This is Calgary's season finale, so Hanley will conclude the campaign with a goal and five points in 42 outings between Dallas and the Flames. He missed the final eight contests of the season due to the injury. Hanley is signed through 2024-25, so he'll likely be on Calgary's roster again next year, though it's feasible the 32-year-old will bounce between serving on the third pairing and being a healthy scratch with the big club.

Flames' Joel Hanley: Exits Tuesday's game
Rotowire
Hanley (undisclosed) exited Tuesday's game versus the Ducks in the first period, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Hanley didn't return to the bench at the start of the second or third periods, so it's safe to assume his game is done. The 32-year-old has seen fairly steady playing time since the Flames claimed him off waivers from the Stars on March 5. If he can't suit up Thursday versus the Jets, Nikita Okhotyuk or Dennis Gilbert could enter the lineup.

Flames' Joel Hanley: Gets first goal with new team
Rotowire
Hanley scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.
Hanley's tally came with 19 seconds left in the game, making no impact on the result. The 32-year-old defenseman is at least getting more consistent playing time with the Flames than he did with the Stars, but his spot on the third pairing hardly makes him a fantasy option. For the season, he has five points, 14 shots on net, 46 hits, 43 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 38 appearances.

Flames' Joel Hanley: Earns assist in team debut
Rotowire
Hanley logged an assist in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Lightning.
Hanley helped out on a Jakob Pelletier tally in the second period. This was Hanley's first game with the Flames after he was claimed off waivers from the Stars following the Chris Tanev trade. Through 33 appearances this season, Hanley has four helpers, 23 PIM, 37 hits, 33 blocked shots, 13 shots on net and a plus-3 rating. The 32-year-old could be a rotational option on defense for the Flames, but they may be more interested in getting a younger option like Daniil Miromanov in the lineup following the team's defensive overhaul.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Hits waivers
Rotowire
Hanley was placed on waivers Monday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.
Hanley has been a healthy scratch for half of Dallas' 16 games since Jan. 25, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. Look for the 32-year-old defender, who's picked up just three assists through 32 top-level appearances this year, to head to AHL Texas if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Losing playing time
Rotowire
Hanley has been scratched for five of the Stars' last six games.
Hanley saw steady playing time in January while Miro Heiskanen (lower body) was out, but that time has dried up since Heiskanen returned. Hanley has competed with Nils Lundkvist for the last spot on the Stars' blue line for much of the season, but the momentum isn't in Hanley's favor currently. The 32-year-old has three assists, 24 hits, 24 blocked shots and 14 PIM through 25 outings this season.
Hanley managed an assist and blocked four shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Hanley has two helpers over his last six games. The 32-year-old continues to see minimal minutes, though he is getting his even-strength time alongside Thomas Harley. Hanley is up to three assists with 17 hits, 16 blocked shots, nine shots on goal, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating through 19 appearances. His place in the lineup is likely secure until Miro Heiskanen (lower body) returns.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Snags helper
Rotowire
Hanley recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Predators.
Hanley may have more security in a third-pairing role because Miro Heiskanen (lower body) out week-to-week. This was Hanley's second game in a row, though he did see a majority of the playing time over Nils Lundkvist in December. Hanley has two helpers, seven shots on net, 15 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 15 appearances, so even if he sticks in the lineup, he won't be a fantasy option.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Gets on scoresheet
Rotowire
Hanley notched an assist, two shots on goal and four PIM in Monday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.
Hanley's second penalty led to a Red Wings goal, which isn't likely to make head coach Pete DeBoer happy. Nonetheless, this was Hanley's eighth appearance in 20 games since the start of November. The 32-year-old has gotten more of a chance to play with Nils Lundkvist failing to meet expectations in a third-pairing role. Hanley has one assist, four shots on net, eight hits, six blocked shots, four PIM and an even plus-minus rating through eight contests.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Playing time opening up
Rotowire
Hanley has played in seven of the Stars' last 15 games.
Hanley sat out the first 10 contests of the season, but he's since found a more regular path to playing time. He filled in when Thomas Harley was hurt, and Hanley has now started to push the struggling Nils Lundkvist for the last spot in the lineup with the Stars at virtually full health. Hanley has no points with seven hits, six blocked shots, two shots on goal and a minus-1 rating over seven appearances, so he's still not likely to be much of an asset for fantasy managers.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Waiting for opportunity
Rotowire
Hanley has been a healthy scratch in seven straight games to begin the season.
Hanley has to bide his time as the Stars' seventh defenseman. The 32-year-old collected two helpers, a plus-5 rating, 24 hits and 28 blocked shots over 26 contests in a similar role last season. Nils Lundkvist has been given a longer runway to establish himself this season, but Hanley could step in if he struggles or if the Stars lose a blueliner to injury.

Stars' Joel Hanley: Re-signing with Dallas
Rotowire
Hanley inked a two-year, $1.58 million deal with the Stars on Saturday.
Hanley re-upped with the Stars after logging two assists and a plus-5 rating in the 26 games last season. The 32-year-old defenseman will likely serve as blue line depth again in 2023.
