Flames' Martin Pospisil: Plucks apple in win
Pospisil managed an assist, two shots on goal, five hits and two blocked shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Wild.
Pospisil ended his seven-game point drought when he set up a Yegor Sharangovich tally in the second period. The 25-year-old Pospisil has moved around the lineup a bit in 2024-25, but he's been on the fourth line lately due to his recent slump. The forward has 25 points in 79 appearances this season, one more point than he had in 63 outings a year ago. He's added 111 shots on net, 298 hits, 84 PIM and a plus-2 rating in his sophomore campaign.

The 25-year-old center is up to 35 points (13 goals, 22 assists), 139 shots on net, 65 hits, 60 blocked shots and a minus-18 rating over 78 appearances between the Flames and Flyers this season.

Coronato notched a power-play assist and four shots on goal in Friday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

For the season, Coronato has asserted himself at the NHL level with 43 points (15 on the power play), 173 shots on net and a plus-5 rating across 74 appearances. He continues to log time in the top six and on the first power-play unit.

Lomberg scored a goal in Friday's 4-2 win over the Wild.
Lomberg cashed in on a breakaway in the third period, giving him four points over his last seven contests. The 30-year-old remains a fixture on the Flames' fourth line, which has not often been a productive spot in the lineup.

Kadri's tally was his 32nd of the year, with this being the third time in his career he's reached that number. He's picked up four points over his last five outings, though this was his first power-play points since March 27 versus the Stars.

Flames' Dustin Wolf: Holds on for win
Wolf stopped 16 of 18 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Wild.
Wolf lost a shutout bid late in the third period, but he was able to maintain the lead this time, avoiding a repeat of Wednesday's collapse versus the Ducks. Wolf is 3-1-2 over six games in April, and he's limited opponents to two goals or fewer in four of those contests. The Flames appear to have handed the reins to Wolf in their final push for a playoff spot. The 23-year-old is now 27-16-8 with a 2.63 GAA and a .909 save percentage over 51 starts. The Flames have no back-to-back sets left, and their next matchup is a favorable one at home Sunday versus the Sharks. It'll likely take Wolf getting to the 30-win mark for the Flames to earn a playoff berth.

Flames' Morgan Frost: Available Friday
Frost (undisclosed) will be back in the lineup against Minnesota on Friday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Frost is currently stuck in a 23-game goal drought during which he has recorded seven helpers, 39 shots and 24 hits while averaging 16:58 of ice time. Despite having been limited to just 9:40 of ice time versus the Ducks on Wednesday, the 25-year-old center will remain in a third-line role in addition to linking up with the No. 2 power-play unit.

Flames' Dustin Wolf: Drawing start against Minnesota
Wolf will start Friday's home game against the Wild, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Wolf has been relatively sharp this month but his record doesn't reflect that notion, going 2-1-2 with a 2.36 GAA and .915 save percentage over five appearances. However, he'll draw a sixth consecutive start and should have a favorable matchup Friday, as the Wild are generating just 2.75 goals per game this season, which is the seventh-worst mark in the NHL.

Farabee logged an assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.
Farabee snapped an eight-game point drought when he set up a Yegor Sharangovich tally in the third period. The 25-year-old Farabee has been on the third line lately, but he's expected to chip in a bit more offense than he has. For the season, the winger is at 25 points, 146 shots on net, 85 hits, 49 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-17 rating over 77 appearances between the Flames and the Flyers.
