Coleman notched an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Coleman has gotten on the scoresheet in three straight games (one goal, two assists). That's the longest streak of the year for the 33-year-old forward. Overall, he's produced six goals, eight assists, 71 shots on net, 59 hits, 29 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 32 appearances. Coleman's fantasy value depends on the format -- he's a good depth option for those in need of hits or shots, but his offense is likely to be limited since the Flames don't tend to score a lot.

Flames' Blake Coleman: Finds twine Saturday
Rotowire
Coleman scored a goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Panthers.
Coleman has two goals and two assists over his last eight games. He provided an insurance tally Saturday with a goal late in the second period. The veteran forward is up to six goals, 13 points, 71 shots on net, 57 hits, 29 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 31 appearances. He's far behind the pace that saw him generate 30 goals and 54 points over 78 outings last year, but his defensive work keeps him in a prominent role for a Flames team that has put an emphasis on playing a tight game.

Flames' Blake Coleman: Offers helper in loss
Rotowire
Coleman notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 8-3 loss to the Lightning.
Coleman has contributed two helpers over five games in December. He set up a Connor Zary tally in the second period of this contest, bringing the Flames within a goal, though that's where the comeback effort stalled out. For the season, Coleman has five goals, seven assists, 66 shots on net, 57 hits, 29 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 30 appearances. He's a reliable two-way forward, but his offense is likely too limited to give him widespread appeal in fantasy.

Coleman continues to take on middle-six minutes, and he'll provide some heavy play in addition to depth scoring.

Rotowire
Coleman scored a goal on two shots and added a game-high six hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Coleman beat a goalie for the first time since the first of his two tallies in a Nov. 1 win over the Devils. He also has two empty-netters and two assists in November. Coleman will never be a leader on offense -- he's best deployed in a middle-six role, though the Flames have had him on the top line recently. The 33-year-old is at five goals, 10 points, 56 shots on net, 47 hits, 21 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 24 appearances this season.

Flames' Blake Coleman: Strikes on power play
Rotowire
Coleman scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Kraken.
Coleman doesn't often feature much on the power play, but he's steadily served on the second unit to begin 2024-25. The goal was his first of the campaign to go with one assist, 19 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-1 rating through five appearances. He's unlikely to repeat his 30-goal, 24-assist performance from 2023-24, but Coleman is one of the Flames' most trusted all-situations forwards.

Flames' Blake Coleman: Logs helper Saturday
Rotowire
Coleman provided an assist, six shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
Coleman picked up his first point in two games by helping out on a Mikael Backlund tally in the third period. Those two veterans have been joined by second-year forward Connor Zary as an effective possession trio. Coleman is at eight shots on net, four hits and a minus-2 rating this season, and even if he's consistent, he'll have a tough time matching his 30-goal, 54-point campaign from 78 regular-season outings in 2023-24.
