Flames' Martin Pospisil: Snaps 19-game goal drought
Martin Pospisil scored a goal Saturday in a 4-3 shootout win over the Wild.Pospisil put the Calgary Flames up 2-1 on the power play late in the second period when he redirected Nazem Kadri's slap pass past Filip Gustavsson's outstretched pad. The 25-year-old Pospisil ended his 19-game goal drought with his second tally of 2024-25. It's been a productive week for him, as he also snapped a 15-game point slump with an assist in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout win over the Islanders. Pospisil isn't as good as his three-game, five-point streak to start the season, but he's not as bad as his recent struggles. Wait to see what Pospisil can do over the next week before considering him as a waiver-wire option.

Flames' Martin Pospisil: Learning moment in loss
Martin Pospisil was whistled for an offensive-zone penalty that led to the go-ahead goal in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Edmonton, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Herald reports. "It can't happen, especially in a tied game," Pospisil said of his third-period penalty. "I have to learn from it."Pospisil plays with an edge -- he leads the team in hits (38) and two-minute minors (six) -- so coaches have learned to accept his style, but his third-period high-sticking penalty in the offensive zone was costly and noticed by head coach Ryan Huska. "It's so hard to win in this league that if you overstep the boundary a little bit, then it can cost a team," Huska said. "I think he understands it. He's gotta really work to be a better player in that regard for us." Pospisil, who opened the season with six points through his first eight appearances, enters Tuesday's contest in Montreal on a four-game pointless run.

He has a goal, four assists, four shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-3 rating while centering Jonathan Huberdeau and Anthony Mantha.

Flames' Martin Pospisil: Registers pair of helpers
Martin Pospisil recorded two assists, four hits, five PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.Pospisil has opened the season with a pair of multi-point efforts. He was limited to 9:09 of ice time Saturday, though that was due to his second-period fight with Tyson Foerster. Pospisil is more agitator than scorer, but he's produced four points, two shots on net, five hits and seven PIM across his first two games this season. If his offense stays consistent, he'll be a viable power forward for fantasy purposes.

He is in a middle-six role to begin 2024-25, but the key for the 24-year-old this year will be to avoid suspension-worthy plays -- he would be deemed a repeat offender after serving a three-game ban in March.
