Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Moves past injury
Kuznetsov (upper body) will be a healthy scratch for Monday's game in Colorado, per Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
Kuznetsov hasn't been in the lineup since March 14 versus the Islanders. Joel Hanley (upper body) will miss the rest of the 2025-26 campaign, so Kuznetsov is currently the Flames' seventh blueliner, but it remains to be seen when he'll get back into the lineup. Calgary's next game is Thursday in Vegas.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Still dealing with injury
Kuznetsov is reportedly still dealing with his upper-body injury and is considered day-to-day, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports Friday.
The nature of Kuznetsov's status has been rather unclear of late, as he has also been listed as a healthy scratch based on other reports. Either way, the 24-year-old blueliner has been out of the lineup for six straight games and figures to be questionable, at best, heading into Saturday's matchup with Vancouver.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Serving as healthy scratch
Kuznetsov (upper body) will be a healthy scratch versus the Ducks on Thursday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Kuznetsov missed time with an upper-body injury, having last played March 14 versus the Islanders, but he has at least been upgraded to the healthy scratch category. At this point, fantasy managers will have to take a wait-and-see approach for when he might get back into the lineup.

Kuznetsov (upper body) will miss Sunday's game against the Lightning but is close to a return, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Kuznetsov has already missed three games and is set to miss a fourth Sunday against the Lightning. However, it seems that the 24-year-old could be ready soon with his next chance to come back being Tuesday against the Kings. He has 12 points (four goals, eight assists) in 52 games on the season.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Set to remain out versus Cats
Kuznetsov (upper body) is expected to continue to miss out versus Florida on Friday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Kuznetsov will be out of action for his third straight game due to his upper-body problem. The blueliner is mired in an 18-game goal drought during which he has recorded just 23 shots and three assists. Given his offensive limitations, Kuznetsov's absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players.

Kuznetsov (upper body) isn't in the lineup Wednesday versus the Blues, Ryan Pike of Flames Nation reports.
Kuznetsov will miss his second straight game with the injury. The 23-year-old's absence continues to be covered by Hunter Brzustewicz, who will skate on the second pairing. Kuznetsov's next chance to play is Friday versus the Panthers.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Unavailable Monday
Kuznetsov (upper body) won't play against Detroit on Monday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Kuznetsov is day-to-day after sustaining the injury in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Islanders. He has earned four goals, 12 points, 58 shots on net, 89 blocked shots and 75 hits across 52 appearances this season. Due to Kuznetsov's absence, Hunter Brzustewicz will draw into Monday's lineup against the Red Wings.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Garners assist Monday
Kuznetsov logged a shorthanded assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Capitals.
Kuznetsov has stepped up into a steady top-four role since the Flames offloaded two defensemen in the lead-up to the trade deadline. The 23-year-old plays more of a shutdown role, so he isn't likely to be a strong target in fantasy. He has 11 points, 54 shots on net, 70 hits, 85 blocked shots, 28 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 49 appearances.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Pots goal in Saturday's win
Kuznetsov scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Islanders.
Kuznetsov ended a six-game point drought with the tally. The 23-year-old defenseman has proven himself capable in his own zone, but there still isn't a lot of offense in his game. He's at four goals, five assists, 35 shots on net, 46 hits, 53 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 34 appearances. Kuznetsov could take on a larger role in the event Rasmus Andersson is traded, though Andersson's power-play minutes are more likely to go to Hunter Brzustewicz or Zayne Parekh in the long run.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Scores early in loss
Kuznetsov scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked four shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Predators.
Kuznetsov is quietly emerging as a steady top-four blueliner for the Flames. His defensive play gets most of the attention, but he's also posted five points and a plus-4 rating over his last 11 contests. For the season, the 23-year-old is at three goals, eight points, 24 shots on net, 42 hits, 43 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-1 rating across 27 appearances.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Two points including winner
Kuznetsov scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Monday's 7-4 victory over the Sabres.
It was the 23-year-old's first career game-winner in his 18th NHL contest, and his first multi-point performance. Kuznetsov is emerging as a reliable member of Calgary's blue line, seeing more than 20 minutes of ice time in 10 straight games, and over the last seven contests, the 2020 second-round pick has produced two goals and four points with 16 blocked shots, 15 hits and a minus-1 rating.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Puts away goal
Kuznetsov scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked four shots in Friday's 5-3 win over the Panthers.
Kuznetsov has a goal and an assist over his last two games. He went nine contests without a point after earning an assist in his season debut. Despite the lack of offense, the 23-year-old's overall play has been strong enough to secure him a top-four spot on the blue line. He's earned three points, 14 shots on net, 18 hits, 21 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 12 appearances.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Registers helper in season debut
Kuznetsov logged an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Blue Jackets.
Kuznetsov's helper was his first point in his second NHL contest. It was his first outing with the big club in 2025-26 after he put up two goals in 10 games with AHL Calgary prior to his Tuesday call-up. Kuznetsov is with the big club to apply some pressure for third-pairing minutes, mainly in competition with fellow left-shot blueliner Jake Bean, but also to keep Zayne Parekh and Brayden Pachal honest as well. Should Kuznetsov play well over an extended stretch, he could help bolster a weak spot in the Flames' lineup.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Summoned from AHL
Kuznetsov was recalled from AHL Calgary on Tuesday.
Kuznetsov has two goals in 10 minor-league appearances this season. He will be an option for Wednesday's game against Columbus, but it's unclear if he will be in the lineup.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Waived by team
Kuznetsov was placed on waivers by the Flames on Tuesday.
Kuznetsov played in one NHL game in which he saw 11:58 of ice time against Ottawa on Jan. 9, 2024. Last season, the 23-year-old blueliner was unable to break into the NHL roster, featuring exclusively for AHL Calgary while tallying six goals and 15 helpers in 72 regular-season contests. Assuming he clears waivers, Kuznetsov figures to spend the bulk of the upcoming campaign with the Wranglers but should be able to earn a call-up or two along the way.

Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Re-signs with Calgary
Kuznetsov signed a two-year contract with the Flames on Thursday.
Kuznetsov was a restricted free agent, so it isn't particularly surprising to see him return to the Flames. The first year of his new contract will be a two-way deal, while the second year will become a one-way agreement. Kuznetsov made 72 regular-season appearances with AHL Calgary last year and recorded six goals, 15 assists and 38 PIM.
