• Flames' Jakob Pelletier: Posts helper in overtime loss

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Pelletier notched an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins. Pelletier has three points over six appearances at the NHL level this season. The 23-year-old winger is seeing bottom-six minutes and minimal power-play time, but he could earn a larger role if he continues to find success. Pelletier was a first-round pick in 2019, so there's some hope that he'll get on track during this stay in the NHL, though he's also been regularly shuffled to and from the AHL since his first call-up of the season Dec. 2. This is likely to prevent him from reaching 30 days on the NHL roster, though if he plays in four more games, he would require waivers to head back to the minors anyway.

  Pelletier was promoted from AHL Calgary on Monday. Pelletier's recall will see him likely jump into the lineup for Tuesday's game against Boston. Additionally, the Flames brought up Walker Duehr, who was also sent down with Pelletier previously. Pelletier has logged five NHL games this year, logging one goal on five shots, one assist and four blocked shots while averaging 9:10 of ice time.

  Pelletier was called up from AHL Calgary on Thursday. Pelletier was sent down Wednesday to relieve some salary cap space and was recalled along with Walker Duehr to give the Flames 12 healthy forwards ahead of Thursday's tilt with Tampa Bay. Pelletier has a goal and an assist in four NHL games this season, as well as three goals and 19 points in 20 AHL games.

• Flames' Jakob Pelletier: Reassigned to AHL

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Pelletier was demoted to AHL Calgary on Wednesday. Since Walker Duehr was sent down with Pelletier on Wednesday, the Flames have just 10 healthy forwards on the roster, which is a good indication these are paper transactions that will be reversed prior to Thursday's matchup with Tampa Bay. For his part, the 23-year-old Pelletier has recorded one goal, one assist and five shots over four games for Calgary this season while averaging 8:08 of ice time.

• Flames' Jakob Pelletier: Lights lamp in overtime loss

  Pelletier scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues. Pelletier has played the last two games, replacing Justin Kirkland (knee) on the fourth line. Kirkland is out for the year, so Pelletier will get an extended audition to prove himself at the NHL level after failing to make the roster out of camp. The 23-year-old is still seeing just fourth-line minutes, so his fantasy appeal is minimal until he gets a better spot in the lineup. Prior to this season, Pelletier had 10 points over his first 37 NHL appearances.
