Cooley made 19 saves on 22 shots in Sunday's 4-2 preseason loss to the Kraken. The fourth marker was an empty-netter.
Cooley conceded just one goal at even strength in this contest -- the other two markers came on the power play, so all things considered, the 29-year-old turned in a decent performance in the Flames' preseason opener. Cooley is entrenched as Dustin Wolf's backup heading into the 2026-27 campaign, so Cooley doesn't need to be rostered in most fantasy formats.
