Zary (knee) is expected to miss Thursday's season finale against the Kings, per the NHL media site.
Zary will conclude the season with 13 goals and 27 points in 54 appearances. That's a modest dip from his 34 points (14 goals) as a rookie in 2023-24, though he did appear in 63 games during that season.

Flames' Connor Zary: Deemed week-to-week
Rotowire
Zary (knee) won't play against Edmonton on Saturday and is week-to-week.
Zary sustained the injury in Thursday's 5-2 loss to Dallas. He has registered 13 goals, 27 points and 111 shots on net in 54 appearances this season. Zary will be replaced in Saturday's lineup by Yegor Sharangovich.
Zary (knee) underwent an initial assessment that offered encouraging results, but he'll require further testing and imaging to determine the extent of his injury, Darren Dreger of TSN reports Friday.
Zary sustained a left knee injury during Thursday's game against the Stars and appeared to be in considerable pain, so it's encouraging that he appeared to get at least some good news in the immediate aftermath. However, he also dealt with a left knee injury earlier in the season that forced him to miss 15 games, so his availability for the final three weeks of the regular season isn't yet clear. If Zary misses additional time, Yegor Sharangovich will likely draw into the lineup.

Flames' Connor Zary: Departs Thursday's game
Rotowire
Zary suffered an apparent knee injury Thursday versus the Stars, and there was no update on his status following the game, Logan Gordon of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Zary collided with Mikko Rantanen in the third period and was in agony on the ice. The injury was on Zary's left knee, which is the same one he hurt earlier in the campaign, leading to a 15-game absence. If the injury is as bad as it appeared this time around, he is likely to be shut down for at least the rest of the regular season. Yegor Sharangovich would likely return to the lineup in that case.

Flames' Connor Zary: Sparks comeback Thursday
Rotowire
Zary scored a goal on five shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Devils.
Zary's goal at 6:50 of the third period was the first of four tallies in the frame for the Flames as they pulled off a comeback win. The 23-year-old also led all Calgary forwards with 21:57 of ice time. Zary has a goal and an assist, as well as nine shots, over two contests following a two-game suspension. He's at 13 goals, 26 points, 105 shots on net and a minus-7 rating through 51 outings in 2024-25. Fantasy managers in need of a boost in points or shots should consider Zary for the final few weeks of the season.

Flames' Connor Zary: Earns assist in return
Rotowire
Zary logged an assist and four shots on goal in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Rangers.
Zary returned from a two-game suspension and was shuffled up to the first line amid some adjustments to the Flames' forward trios. It proved to be a productive spot, as Zary had the secondary helper on Nazem Kadri's game-tying goal midway through the first period. Zary was on the fourth line prior to his suspension, but he often subbed in for shifts with other forwards during that time. The 23-year-old forward is at 12 goals, 13 assists, 100 shots on net and a minus-7 rating over 50 appearances this season, which is enough production to help in deeper formats.

Flames' Connor Zary: Eligible to play Tuesday
Rotowire
Zary has served his two-game suspension and will be available against the Rangers on Tuesday.
Zary was struggling to produce offensively prior to his suspension, having generated points in just one of his previous nine outings. During that stretch, the winger recorded just 13 shots, four hits and four blocks, so he's also not providing much in the way of category coverage either.

Flames' Connor Zary: Hit with two-game ban
Rotowire
Zary has been suspended for two games by the Department of Player Safety on Thursday.
Zary will miss games against the Avalanche and Maple Leafs on Friday and Monday, respectively, while serving his suspension for elbowing Vancouver Elias Pettersson in Wednesday's contest. With Zary unavailable, Adam Klapka could slide into a fourth-line role, though the Flames may have to call up a player from the minors if Mikael Backlund (upper body) can't play either.

Flames' Connor Zary: Headed for suspension
Rotowire
Zary will have a hearing with the Department of Player Safety on Thursday for elbowing.
At this point, Zary should be expected to miss at least one game due to suspension, though it could certainly be longer. With the winger set to at least be unavailable versus the Avalanche on Friday, Adam Klapka will likely jump into the lineup against Colorado in what would be just his 14th NHL game of the season.

Flames' Connor Zary: Strikes twice in Philadelphia
Rotowire
Zary scored two goals in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
The 23-year-old lit the lamp twice in less than two minutes during the first period as Calgary raced out to an early 3-0 lead. It was the first multi-goal performance of Zary's career, and the points were his first in six games since returning from a lower-body injury after the 4 Nations Face-Off break. On the season, he's produced 12 goals and 24 points over 46 appearances.

Flames' Connor Zary: Activated Sunday
Rotowire
Zary (knee) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's matchup with San Jose, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
While coach Ryan Huska didn't confirm that Zary will play Sunday, it appears that the 23-year-old forward is poised to return after missing Calgary's last 15 games. Zary has 10 goals and 22 points in 40 games this season.

Flames' Connor Zary: Out indefinitely, no surgery needed
Rotowire
Zary's lower-body injury won't require surgery but he is considered out indefinitely, the Flames reported Friday.
Zary was injured in Tuesday's game against the Ducks, but it appears he has avoided a worst-case scenario. He will begin his rehab immediately, per the team, but there's no telling when he'll be able to make his return from injured reserve. Rory Kerins was called up when Zary went on IR and figures to take on a bottom-six role initially.

Flames' Connor Zary: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
Zary (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Friday, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Zary was injured Tuesday when he collided knee-on-knee with Anaheim's Drew Helleson in the middle stanza. Zary is having a nice sophomore season in the NHL, tallying 10 goals and adding 12 assists in 40 games. He has been a force on the power play with one goal and eight assists while averaging 2:21 of ice time.

Flames' Connor Zary: Hurt in Tuesday's game
Rotowire
Zary (lower body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Ducks, Eric Francis of Sportsnet reports.
Zary got the worst of a knee-on-knee hit from Drew Helleson in the second period and was in substantial pain as he left the ice. The 23-year-old Zary could be looking at a significant absence given the nature of the collision -- it's doubtful he'll play Wednesday in Los Angeles at a minimum. Assuming he misses time, Yegor Sharangovich will probably slide over to center while Walker Duehr would likely enter the lineup.

Flames' Connor Zary: Stays warm with goal
Rotowire
Zary scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Utah.
Zary has scored in back-to-back contests and has six points over his last seven games. The 23-year-old forward is up to 10 goals, 22 points, 80 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 38 appearances this season. He's made modest gains in most areas this season, and while he remains listed on the third line, Zary has often seen more ice time that role would suggest. He's a decent option for fantasy managers in deeper redraft formats.

Flames' Connor Zary: Scores in 100th career game
Rotowire
Zary scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.
Zary tallied the opening goal at 14:31 of the first period. This was the forward's 100th career game, and he's earned a total of 55 points so far. The 23-year-old was good in December with four goals and five assists over 12 appearances, giving him nine goals, 21 points, 76 shots on net and a minus-6 rating over 37 outings this season. Zary's still listed on the third line, but he's been productive in that spot on a low-scoring team.

Flames' Connor Zary: Two more points in win
Rotowire
Zary scored a goal on two shots and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Blackhawks.
Zary is surging, with at least one point in seven of his last eight games. He has three goals and five assists in that span, with four of the helpers coming on the power play. The 23-year-old is up to eight goals, 20 points (nine on the power play), 70 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 34 appearances. Investing in Calgary's offense can be risky in fantasy, but Zary's at least playing well right now.

Rotowire
Zary logged a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators.

Zary is in a middle-six role at even strength, and he's produced a total of 18 points (eight on the power play), 68 shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-7 rating through 33 appearances.

Rotowire
Zary logged an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Zary has two goals and three assists over his last six games. The 23-year-old forward has run a little streaky on offense, but he's been more good than bad over the last month. For the year, he's up to seven goals, 10 assists, 65 shots on net and a minus-7 rating through 32 appearances in a middle-six role.
