What Happened

During Wednesday's matchup against the Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames goaltender Devin Cooley sustained a lower-body injury following a collision with forward Colton Dach with 12 seconds remaining in the first period. Dach received a two-minute minor penalty for goaltender interference on the play. Cooley finished out the remaining 12 seconds of the frame, but Dustin Wolf took over in net to start the second period. The team subsequently announced Cooley would not return. The departure halted a strong run of form for the 29-year-old netminder. Additionally, Flames forward Brennan Othmann was ruled out with an upper-body injury after engaging in a first-period fight with Oilers defenceman Ty Emberson.
