Kirkland (lower body) won't play Saturday in Pittsburgh, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Kirkland was injured early in the first period after playing just two shifts, and did not return. He has been a good fourth-line winger, as he has two goals, six assists, 45 hits and 16 blocked shots in 21 contests. Adam Klapka will replace Kirkland in the lineup Saturday.

Flames' Justin Kirkland: Snags assist Thursday
Kirkland logged an assist and two hits in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Kirkland may get more steady playing time while Anthony Mantha (lower body) is on injured reserve. The 28-year-old Kirkland was scratched twice to start November, but it looks like he's got some job security, as he would require waivers to be reassigned to AHL Calgary. He's produced six points, four shots on net, 29 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 11 outings this season.

Flames' Justin Kirkland: Sling assist in shootout win
Kirkland logged an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Penguins.
Kirkland's helper set up the opening tally by Rasmus Andersson. In the shootout, Kirkland scored the decisive goal in the sixth round. The 28-year-old saw a season-high 14:28 of ice time and has earned three points, two shots on net, 13 hits, five blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through five appearances. While he's not a must-have fantasy player, Kirkland is doing a lot to keep his place in the lineup even once Kevin Rooney (undisclosed) and Yegor Sharangovich (lower body) are ready to return.

Flames' Justin Kirkland: Grabs helper in win
Kirkland produced an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Kirkland has two points, eight hits, three blocks and a plus-3 rating over his three NHL appearances this season. The 28-year-old is strengthening his grip on the fourth-line center spot that was occupied by Kevin Rooney (undisclosed) prior to his injury in the season opener. Kirkland's role is still too limited to be useful in fantasy, but he's been a positive story on the ice after an arduous journey to competing for a full-time NHL job.

Flames' Justin Kirkland: Scores first NHL goal
Kirkland scored a goal and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Oilers.
The 28-year-old forward has taken a long path to the NHL, entering this season with just nine games of prior experience. Kirkland finally signed his name on a scoresheet with a third-period tally Sunday, earning the first goal and point of his career. He didn't make the Flames' Opening Night roster but joined the team after Kevin Rooney (undisclosed) landed on injured reserve. Kirkland will likely be limited to a fourth-line role as long as he's in the NHL, with his biggest contribution coming in hits -- he has seven through two appearances.
