Top Kevin Rooney News

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Finds assist in loss

    Rooney notched an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.

    Rooney helped out on a Rasmus Andersson tally in the second period. Since joining the Flames after the All-Star break, Rooney has seen consistent playing time as the fourth-line center. He's starting to come around on offense with a goal and an assist over his last two games, but it's unlikely to lead to a sustained scoring surge. The center is at three points, 18 shots on net, 38 hits, 19 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 20 appearances this season.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Deposits goal in loss

    Rooney scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals.

    Rooney snapped a 16-game point drought with his second-period tally. The 30-year-old has had limited chances to produce offense while playing on the Flames' fourth line. He's posted two goals, 15 shots on net, 37 hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 19 appearances, numbers not good enough to justify a roster spot in nearly all fantasy formats.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Inks one-year extension

    Rooney signed a one-year, $1.3 million contract extension with the Flames on Friday.

    Rooney has only played in 13 games with the big club this year, recording one goal and 23 hits. The 30-year-old forward should, however, see regular usage as a member of Calgary's fourth line down the stretch.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Nets goal in second game of season

    Rooney scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Devils.

    This was Rooney's second game of the campaign at the NHL level. He's added three shots on net, two hits and a plus-1 rating while centering the fourth line. Rooney should stick in that spot for the remainder of the campaign after the Flames dealt Elias Lindholm to the Canucks and lost Adam Ruzicka on waivers to the Coyotes. Rooney probably won't score enough for fantasy, but his place in the lineup is unlikely to be challenged.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Brought up from AHL

    Rooney was summoned from AHL Calgary on Sunday.

    Rooney has one goal in four AHL outings this season. He missed the start of the 2023-24 campaign following shoulder surgery in October. The 30-year-old forward contributed one assist, 14 shots on goal, 10 blocked shots and 26 hits in 17 appearances with the Flames last season.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Hits waivers

    Rooney (shoulder) was placed on waivers Monday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, after being activated from long-term injured reserve.

    Assuming he clears, Rooney can start seeing game action with AHL Calgary after recovering from shoulder surgery in October. He chipped in one assist, 14 shots on goal, 10 blocked shots and 26 hits in 17 outings with the Flames last season.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Moved to LTIR

    Rooney (shoulder) was transferred Thursday from the regular injured reserve list to the long-term injured reserve list, per CapFriendly.

    Rooney hasn't played yet this campaign due to the injury, so he'll be eligible to be activated for the Flames' contest against Nashville on Nov. 7. He had an assist, 26 hits and 10 blocks in 17 contests with Calgary last season. Once Rooney is healthy, he'll likely take a spot on the Flames' fourth line.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Lands on injured reserve

    Rooney (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, per CapFriendly.

    Rooney is expected to miss significant time after undergoing surgery. The 30-year-old was pushing for a bottom-six spot in the Flames' lineup, but Adam Ruzicka will likely center the fourth line to begin 2023-24.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Will undergo shoulder surgery

    Rooney will undergo shoulder surgery Wednesday.

    The Flames expect Rooney to be out long term, but beyond that, they haven't provided a timetable for his recovery. He had an assist in 17 outings with Calgary in 2022-23.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Out with upper-body injury

    Rooney is dealing with an upper-body injury, Flames coach Ryan Huska told Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan on Wednesday.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Is on waivers

    Rooney was put on waivers by Calgary on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Rooney has an assist in 17 games this season while averaging 8:52 of ice time. He's served as a healthy scratch in five of Calgary's last seven contests. If the 29-year-old goes unclaimed on waivers, then he'll likely be reassigned to the AHL.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Back to press box

    Rooney was a healthy scratch for Friday's 3-0 loss to the Capitals.

    Rooney had played in the previous two games with Brett Ritchie banged up, but the latter returned Friday. The 29-year-old Rooney hasn't gotten on the scoresheet since the second game of the season, and he's been ineffective in a fourth-line role. He's produced one assist, 22 hits, 10 blocked shots, seven PIM, a minus-2 rating and 13 shots on goal while averaging just 8:53 of ice time per game across 15 appearances.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: First helper with new team

    Rooney produced an assist and logged six hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.

    Rooney set up a Michael Stone howitzer for the Flames' second goal at 4:34 of the first period. The assist was Rooney's first point with Calgary after signing a two-year contract in July. The 29-year-old has added a plus-2 rating, eight hits and a shot on goal in two contests while serving as the fourth-line center. His heavy play and defensive work won't translate well to fantasy, but he'll likely be a fixture in the lineup.

  • Flames' Kevin Rooney: Signs with Calgary

    Rooney signed a two-year, $2.6 million contract with the Flames on Wednesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Rooney drew into 61 games with the Rangers last season, picking up 12 points and 84 hits while averaging 13:51 of ice time per contest. The 29-year-old forward will likely be a regular in Calgary's bottom six in 2022-23, but don't expect him to produce much offense.

  • Rangers' Kevin Rooney: Helps out on empty-netter

    Rooney earned an assist and four PIM in Friday's 5-3 win over the Penguins in Game 6.

    Rooney set up Andrew Copp for the empty-netter in the final minute of the game. This was Rooney's second assist in six playoff contests. The 28-year-old center has added 18 hits, five shots on net, four PIM and a plus-1 rating while seeing limited playing time on the fourth line.

  • Rangers' Kevin Rooney: Logs shorthanded assist

    Rooney notched a shorthanded assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Penguins in Game 3.

    Rooney set up Andrew Copp for a shorthanded tally that tied the game at 4-4 in the second period. The 28-year-old Rooney is unlikely to play much more than a fourth-line role, so he's not likely to be a factor for most fantasy managers. He posted 12 points in 61 regular-season contests this year.

  • Rangers' Kevin Rooney: Ready to rock

    Rooney (upper body) will be activated off injured reserve and return to the lineup Saturday versus the Senators, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

    Rooney is expected to return to a bottom-six role after an absence that lasted over a month, centering the fourth line against Ottawa. He's picked up 11 points through 51 games this campaign.

  • Rangers' Kevin Rooney: Targeting early April return

    Rooney (upper body) has been skating on his own and is targeting an early April return to game action, per coach Gerard Gallant, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

    The same is true of fellow injured Rangers forward Kappo Kakko (wrist). New York beefed up its forward depth at the trade deadline, but there should still be a lineup spot for Rooney in the bottom six upon his return, as he's one of the team's top penalty killers and chipped in 11 points in 51 games prior to getting injured.

  • Rangers' Kevin Rooney: Deemed week-to-week

    Rooney (upper body) was ruled a week-to-week decision Thursday, per Colin Stephenson of Newsday.

    Rooney has averaged 13:58 of ice time and generated 11 points over 51 games this season. Tim Gettinger was recalled from AHL Hartford in a corresponding move the same day Rooney was placed on injured reserve.

  • Rangers' Kevin Rooney: Lands on IR
