Mammoth's Kevin Rooney: Headed back to AHL
Rooney is headed back to AHL Tucson, the Mammoth announced Sunday.
Rooney was a healthy scratch for the entirety of his latest stint at the NHL level and is still seeking his first NHL appearance of the season. He suited up for 70 regular-season NHL games with the Flames last season. Rooney will get some more games in with AHL Tucson, where he has three goals and an assist in six games.

Mammoth's Kevin Rooney: Brought up from minors
Rooney was recalled from AHL Tucson on Sunday.
Rooney has three goals and one assist in six minor-league appearances this campaign. He will accompany the Mammoth on the team's upcoming two-game road trip, which begins in Anaheim on Monday, but it's unclear if he will make his NHL season debut.

Mammoth's Kevin Rooney: Sent to AHL
Rooney was assigned to AHL Tucson on Friday.
Rooney spent just over three weeks with the Mammoth, but he didn't appear in any games during his time with the NHL club. He should have more consistent opportunities for playing time in the minors, where he's racked up three goals, an assist and a plus-2 rating over four appearances with the Roadrunners this year.

Mammoth's Kevin Rooney: Promoted to NHL
Rooney was recalled from AHL Tucson on Thursday.
Rooney will trade places with Andrew Agozzino, who was sent down in a corresponding move after passing through waivers. In four games with the Roadrunners this year, the 32-year-old Rooney has notched three goals and one helper. Whether Rooney suits up against the Blues on Thursday will likely depend on the health of Jack McBain (upper body).

Mammoth's Kevin Rooney: Links up with new club
Rooney inked a one-year, two-way contract with the Mammoth on Monday, per PuckPedia.
Rooney signed a professional tryout agreement with the Devils in early September, but it seems as though his play in the preseason earned him a full contract with his new club. Considering he's on a two-way deal, the veteran center might begin the 2025-26 season in the minors, but he could be called up at some point during the early portion of the year if Alex Kerfoot (lower body) misses substantial time.

Devils' Kevin Rooney: Gets tryout offer from New Jersey
Rooney signed a professional tryout agreement with the Devils on Friday.
Rooney will compete for the fourth-line center job with the Devils during training camp. If he performs well, he'll be in contention for a full contract, likely a two-way deal. He played on a $1.3 million contract with the Flames last year but racked up just 10 points with 109 hits, 39 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 70 appearances.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Unavailable Thursday
Rooney (rest) will not play Thursday in Los Angeles, according to Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
Rooney will end the season with five goals, five assists, 109 hits and 39 blocked shots across 70 outings. He's slated to become an unrestricted free agent during the offseason.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Deposits goal
Rooney scored a goal in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Ducks.
The fourth-liner stretched the Flames' lead to 3-1 at 15:19 of the second period. Rooney has picked up the pace a little with a goal and two assists over his last six outings. That's not to say he'll take off on offense -- his role remains heavily limited. He's reached double-digit points for the fourth time in his career with five goals, five helpers, 51 shots on net, 98 hits, 38 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 64 appearances.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Posts assist Tuesday
Rooney logged an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken.
Rooney has three helpers over 12 games in March, though his assist Tuesday snapped a five-game skid. The 31-year-old center has played exclusively on the fourth line when in the lineup, offering minimal fantasy value on a low-scoring team. He's at eight points, 46 shots on net, 94 hits, 34 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 59 appearances.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Logs shorthanded helper
Rooney notched a shorthanded assist and two hits in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Canucks.
Rooney has two helpers over his last four outings. The 31-year-old center could see more ice time in the near term if Mikael Backlund (upper body) misses time after exiting early Wednesday. It's also possible the Flames turn to other forwards to fill the gap rather than let Rooney see more than fourth-line minutes. For the season, Rooney has seven points, 39 shots on net, 83 hits, 32 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 53 appearances.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Cashes in for goal
Rooney scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.
Rooney buried a goal from close range at 3:35 of the second period, giving the Flames their first lead of the contest. It was his first point in over two months -- he last got on the scoresheet Dec. 10 versus the Predators with a two-point game. Rooney has surpassed his 2023-24 production, earning four goals, one assist, 34 shots on net, 72 hits, 26 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 45 appearances this season. However, if the Flames upgrade their roster at the trade deadline, he could find himself out of the lineup or off the NHL roster altogether.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Still slumping in fourth-line role
Rooney has gone 23 games without a point after being held off the scoresheet in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Kraken.
Rooney has fended off a challenge for playing time from Clark Bishop, who is back with AHL Calgary. Despite the slump, Rooney remains the Flames' preferred option for the fourth-line center spot. He has four points, 32 shots on net, 70 hits, 25 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating over 44 appearances this season. It's unlikely he'll reach the 10-point mark by the end of the campaign -- he hasn't gotten there since 2021-22 with the Rangers, when he had 12 points over 61 outings.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Stuck in slump
Rooney was held off the scoresheet for the 13th consecutive game in Monday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Rooney hasn't recorded a point since he had a goal and an assist against the Predators on Dec. 10. The 31-year-old forward has maintained a steady spot as the Flames' fourth-line center this season, but his role is not a fantasy-friendly one. He has four points, 29 shots on net, 56 hits and a minus-5 rating while averaging just 9:48 of ice time through 34 appearances.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: First multi-point effort of 2024-25
Rooney notched a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Predators.
Rooney cracked the scoresheet for the first time since Nov. 23, when he scored a goal in a 4-3 win over the Canadiens, though fantasy managers shouldn't expect consistent production from the 31-year-old going forward. Even though he sees regular ice time due to his role in the fourth line, he's registered just three goals and four points in 21 games this season. Even though he brings physicality to the table, as evidenced by his 34 hits and 10 blocked shots, ultimately, he doesn't produce enough to be reliable in most fantasy formats.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Rare goal in shootout victoy
Rooney scored a goal in a 4-3 shootout win over the Wild on Saturday.
Rooney put the Flames up 1-0 at the 15:00 mark of the first period with a great tip over Filip Gustavsson's right pad. The 31-year-old Rooney has two goals in 13 games this season in a fourth-line role. He has played 273 NHL games for the Devils, Rangers and Flames over nine seasons. He has no fantasy merit, but he's living his dream.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Fills empty cage
Rooney scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Monday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
Rooney earned his first point of the season with the empty-netter to help the Flames fend off the Kings at the end of the game. This was the center's first point in eight appearances this season. He missed time with a concussion in October but appears to be the Flames' preferred option as the fourth-line center. In addition to his goal, he has three shots on net, 11 hits, four blocked shots and four PIM.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Poised to play Thursday
Rooney (concussion) is expected back in the lineup versus Carolina on Thursday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Rooney missed the Flames' previous five games following a concussion suffered in the season opener against Vancouver on Oct. 9. With the veteran forward retaking his spot on the fourth line, Adam Klapka will find himself back in the press box after suiting up in the prior two matchups. For his part, Rooney has never reached the 15-point threshold in his seven full NHL seasons, so fantasy players shouldn't be banking on him for offensive contributions.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Placed on injured reserve
Rooney (undisclosed) was put on injured reserve Friday, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
The Flames recalled Justin Kirkland from AHL Calgary in a corresponding move. Rooney was injured after seeing only 1:03 of ice time Opening Night in Vancouver on Wednesday. The 31-year-old veteran had three goals and an assist in 33 regular-season appearances for the Flames in 2023-24.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Labeled day-to-day
Rooney (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day after exiting Wednesday's matchup against Vancouver, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Rooney logged just 1:03 of ice time before he was forced out of the clash with the Canucks. The veteran center could still be available to face the Flyers on Saturday, while Matthew Coronato will be on standby to step into Rooney's fourth-line role if needed.

Flames' Kevin Rooney: Leaves Wednesday's game
Rooney (undisclosed) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Canucks.
Rooney took a hard hit from J.T. Miller in the first period and was unable to get back into the game. If Rooney misses additional time, Matthew Coronato would likely enter the lineup. The Flames' next game is at home Saturday versus the Flyers in the first half of a back-to-back.
