Flames' Dryden Hunt: Called up from minors
Hunt was promoted from AHL Calgary on Thursday.
Hunt's recall comes after Anthony Mantha (lower body) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Even with his promotion, the 28-year-old Hunt is far from a lock for the lineup and will likely need to edge out Kevin Rooney for minutes. In 28 regular-season contests last year, the Hunt notched three goals and five assists while averaging 11:08 of ice time.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Designated for waivers
Hunt was placed on waivers by the Flames on Thursday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Hunt played in just 28 NHL games last season in which he garnered three goals, five assists and 33 shots while averaging 11:08 of ice time. Assuming the 28-year-old winger passes through waivers, he figures to start the upcoming 2024-25 campaign playing in the minors for the Wranglers.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Helper, fight in win
Hunt notched an assist, five hits and five PIM in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Coyotes.
Hunt fought Arizona's Jan Jenik in the first period and then assisted on a Connor Zary goal in the middle frame. The 28-year-old Hunt has two assists and 14 hits over his last two contests after going nine games without a point. The veteran forward is up to eight points, 73 hits, 32 shots on net, seven PIM and a plus-2 rating over 27 NHL outings this season, mainly in a bottom-six role.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Lends assist in win
Hunt notched an assist and eight hits in Friday's 6-3 win over the Ducks.
Hunt helped out on a Connor Zary tally late in the second period, which stood as the game-winner. The 28-year-old Hunt had gone nine games without a point prior to Friday, and he was scratched three times during his drought. He's at seven points, 32 shots on net, 67 hits and a plus-1 rating through 26 appearances this season.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Provides two helpers in win
Hunt notched two assists and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Hunt has been quietly solid during this stint in the NHL, picking up three goals and three assists over 12 appearances. That's not offense that will earn him much fantasy attention, but he's earned his third-line role. The physical winger has six points, 25 shots on net, 36 hits and a plus-1 rating over 16 outings this season. Hunt's offense could be a little stronger than usual if he sticks alongside Yegor Sharangovich and Matthew Coronato.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Tallies in Sunday's loss
Hunt scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 7-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Hunt has a goal in two of the last three games, and he's picked up four points over his last seven outings. The 28-year-old forward probably shouldn't be expected to sustain that offense, but he's helping his cause to stay in the lineup once Martin Pospisil returns from a suspension Tuesday. Hunt has four points, 24 shots on net, 35 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 14 appearances.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Opens scoring in win
Hunt scored a goal and added three hits in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Lightning.
Hunt has picked up three points over his last five games while mainly playing on the fourth line in that span. The 28-year-old opened the scoring Thursday on a feed from Yegor Sharangovich at 11:40 of the first period. Hunt has three points, 20 shots on net, 30 hits and an even plus-minus rating across 12 top-level outings this year.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Registers assist Tuesday
Hunt notched an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
Hunt has a point in each of the last two contests after going scoreless in his first seven appearances. He's gotten a chance to play with Jonathan Huberdeau and Yegor Sharangovich at even strength, though Hunt's usage remains more in line with a bottom-six forward. In addition to his two points, the 28-year-old has 19 shots on net and 26 hits through nine outings.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Nets first goal of season
Hunt scored a goal, added three hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Oilers.
Hunt's goal was his first in eight games for the Flames. He's added 19 shots on net, 23 hits and an even plus-minus rating. He took some shifts alongside Jonathan Huberdeau in Saturday's contest, but Hunt is likely to be a bottom-six option if he stays in the lineup once Andrei Kuzmenko (illness) is healthy enough to return.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Added to NHL roster
Hunt was called up from AHL Calgary on Friday.
Hunt is pointless in his four NHL games this season during which he's averaged 12:45 of ice time while recording 10 shots, six hits and a minus-3 rating. With Cole Schwindt returning to the minors in a corresponding move, Hunt could be in contention to get back into the lineup versus the Red Wings on Saturday, though that will likely depend on the health of Jakob Pelletier (upper body).

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Put on waivers
Hunt was placed on waivers Tuesday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
Hunt hasn't earned a point in four appearances with the Flames this season, though he has been credited with 10 shots on goal and four hits. Hunt lost his spot on the roster due to the recent success of call-ups Connor Zary and Martin Pospisil.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Moves to press box
Hunt was a healthy scratch with Dillon Dube (undisclosed) back in the lineup Saturday versus the Kraken.
Hunt appears to be the 13th forward for the Flames this season -- he's been scratched in seven of 11 games. The 27-year-old hasn't done much when active, going minus-3 with 10 shots on goal and four hits over four appearances, though he also earned some power-play time. Hunt could provide a change of pace, but after the Flames won 6-3 Saturday, he may be set for an extended stay in the press box.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Inks one-year contract
Hunt signed a one-year, two-way contract with Calgary on Sunday.
Hunt provided five goals and 15 points in 17 regular-season games with AHL Calgary after being acquired from Toronto prior to the NHL trade deadline. He also posted three goals and three assists in nine outings during the 2023 Calder Cup Playoffs. Hunt could get a chance to land a fourth-line spot with the Flames out of training camp.

Flames' Dryden Hunt: Traded to Calgary
Hunt was traded from Toronto to Calgary in exchange for Radim Zohorna on Friday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.
Hunt has drawn into 12 NHL contests split between the Rangers and the Maple Leafs this season, picking up two goals over that span. He'll likely report to AHL Stockton.

Maple Leafs' Dryden Hunt: Hits waivers
Hunt was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Hunt has one goal and 31 hits in nine games with Toronto since being acquired in trade with Colorado on Dec. 19. In 37 appearances with the Maple Leafs, Avalanche and Rangers this season, he has three goals, 23 shots on net and 100 hits.

Maple Leafs' Dryden Hunt: Traded in one-for-one deal
Hunt was brought in by the Leafs from the Avalanche on Monday in a swap for Denis Malgin.
Hunt is currently stuck in a 10-game pointless streak and managed just one point in 25 games for the Avs. It will be Hunt's third team this season after he was previously picked up off the waiver wire by Colorado from the Rangers. Given his limited offensive upside, Hunt shouldn't be expected to offer more than low-end fantasy value.

Avalanche's Dryden Hunt: Tallies after promotion
Hunt scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Stars.
Hunt was bumped up to the second line Saturday, though he still saw just 11:29 of ice time in the contest. The goal was his first point as a member of the Avalanche -- he began the year with the Rangers but was waived in October. The 27-year-old has two tallies, 15 shots on net, 45 hits and a minus-1 rating in 18 contests between the two teams. His lack of offense makes him an uninteresting option in fantasy.

Avalanche's Dryden Hunt: Logs five hits in win
Hunt had five hits over 6:15 of ice time in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.
This was Hunt's second game for Colorado, which scooped him off waivers from the Rangers on Thursday. He made his Avalanche debut Friday and has recorded seven hits in his two games. Hunt is strictly fourth-line material for the Avs and has a history of throwing his body around. He logged 153 hits over 76 games for the Rangers in 2021-22, and the year before that, he delivered 94 thumps over 26 games with the Coyotes.

Avalanche's Dryden Hunt: Makes Avalanche debut
Hunt had two hits over 4:27 of ice time in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.
Hunt made his debut in a Colorado jersey and skated on the little-used fourth line. Neither Hunt, Martin Kaut (5:55 TOI) or Jayson Megna (4:30) got off the bench in the third period. Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar told Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now that playing from behind necessitated putting his best offensive players on the ice and shortening the bench. Early on, it's obvious the depth of scoring the Avs enjoyed during their Cup-winning 2021-22 season has not yet emerged this year.
