Tomas Nosek LW | FLA
Panthers' Tomas Nosek: Garners first assist of season
Nosek logged an assist, two hits and two PIM in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Flames.
Nosek picked up his first point of the season in his ninth outing. The 33-year-old missed nearly five months to begin the campaign while recovering from a knee injury. He's added just one shot on net, 27 hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. Nosek is firmly in a bottom-six role and won't be a fantasy candidate in the vast majority of formats.

A.J. Greer LW | ANA
Panthers' A.J. Greer: Scores before ejection
Greer scored a goal, doled out four hits and added 17 PIM in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Flames.
He got his goal early in the third period, but his hooking and interference penalties on Connor Zary later in the same frame led to Greer's ejection. The Flames scored twice on the ensuing power play to rebuff the Panthers' comeback effort. Greer has scored in consecutive contests, but he could be subject to supplemental discipline for his hit. Overall, the 29-year-old has 13 goals, 24 points, 109 PIM, 181 hits, 87 shots on net and a plus-5 rating across 68 appearances.

Daniil Tarasov G | DET
Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Struggles in Calgary
Tarasov stopped 32 of 36 shots in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Flames.
Tarasov kept the game fairly close until late in the third period. A.J. Greer was given a game misconduct for a reckless hit, and the Flames were able to cash in twice on the ensuing major penalty to pull away. Tarasov's results have been poor lately -- he's 1-6-0 with 28 goals allowed on 210 shots over his last seven outings. For the season, the 26-year-old goalie is 9-12-2 with a 3.00 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 24 appearances, which matches his career high. He'll get a fair amount of work down the stretch as the Panthers have lately avoided overworking Sergei Bobrovsky in what's become a lost campaign. The Panthers' next game is versus the Kraken on Tuesday.

Blake Coleman LW | MIN
Flames' Blake Coleman: Dishes pair of assists
Coleman recorded two assists in Friday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Coleman has three goals and three helpers over his last eight contests. The 34-year-old remains one of the better fantasy options on the Flames' roster as a multi-category contributor, especially since he's seen top-six minutes since the trade deadline. Coleman is up to 16 goals, 12 helpers, 141 shots on net, 134 hits, 39 blocked shots, 41 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 57 outings this season.

Victor Olofsson LW | LV
Flames' Victor Olofsson: Scores first goal in Calgary colors
Olofsson scored a goal on six shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
This was Olofsson's first goal and second point in seven games with the Flames since he was dealt from the Avalanche in the Nazem Kadri deal. The 30-year-old Olofsson continues to fill a bottom-six role at even strength, but he has also maintained power-play time with his new team. For the season, the winger has 12 goals, 27 points, 127 shots on net and a plus-4 rating across 67 appearances.

Joel Farabee LW | CGY
Flames' Joel Farabee: Pots goal Friday
Farabee scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Friday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Farabee had gone six games without a goal, picking up just two assists and seven shots on net in that span. The 26-year-old was able to open the scoring at 7:44 of the second period in this contest. The winger now has 16 goals, 31 points, 120 shots on net, 45 hits, 44 blocked shots, 26 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 69 appearances in a top-six role this season.

Morgan Frost C | CGY
Flames' Morgan Frost: Tallies with man advantage
Frost scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two hits in Friday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Frost has scored twice over the last three games. The 26-year-old center has seven points over 11 outings in March, with three of those points coming on the power play. Overall, he's up to 16 goals, 34 points (14 on the power play), 117 shots on net, 44 hits, 33 blocked shots and a minus-18 rating over 69 appearances. Consistency is still a work in progress for Frost, but he's worth a look as a fantasy streaming option when he's in a groove on offense.
-
Matthew Coronato RW | CGY
Flames' Matthew Coronato: Buries power-play goal
Coronato scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two PIM in Friday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Coronato has awakened on offense with three points over his last three games. Prior to that, he went nine contests without a point, adding 22 shots on net and a minus-7 rating. The 23-year-old winger is up to 16 goals, 33 points (11 on the power play), 171 shots on net and a minus-28 rating across 68 appearances. Coronato has the talent to put up better numbers, but he would benefit from a stronger supporting cast that may take some time to develop in Calgary.
-
Dustin Wolf G | CGY
Flames' Dustin Wolf: Steady in Friday's win
Wolf allowed a goal on 25 shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Wolf has won three of his seven outings in March, allowing 21 goals on 173 shots in those contests. The 24-year-old netminder is up to 20-25-3 with a 2.98 GAA and an .897 save percentage over 50 appearances this season. Wolf won't match his 29-win total from last year, and he's regressed across the board while backstopping a weak team. The Flames' next game is a tough matchup Sunday versus the Lightning.

Wyatt Kaiser D | CHI
Blackhawks' Wyatt Kaiser: Nets lone goal in loss
Kaiser scored a goal on three shots in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Avalanche.
Kaiser led the Blackhawks with 21:38 of ice time in this contest. He has two points over his last three games and continues to grow into a more significant top-four role late in the campaign. The 23-year-old blueliner has picked up six goals, 14 points, 65 shots on net, 55 blocked shots, 39 hits, 30 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 64 appearances this season, showing modest growth on offense after his eight-point effort in 57 outings a year ago.
