Calgary Flames winger Blake Coleman enjoyed his best game of the season Monday against the Flyers, recording three points. He picked up a pair of first-period assists and was among the goal-scorers as the team wrapped up a 5-2 with a couple of empty-netters. Coleman now sits on nine points for the year, with five of the points coming in the past four games. It's not been a very prolific campaign so far for the 30-year-old, but Coleman currently skates with Jonathan Huberdeau and his presence has given him a lift. The Flames winger will look to score in a third consecutive game Wednesday versus Pittsburgh.
Calgary Flames center Blake Coleman had several quality scoring chances on Friday versus the Anaheim Ducks. More importantly, he found the back of the net 3:49 into the second period to tie the game at one. Coleman also fired seven shots on goal and delivered a couple of hits as well. The center had struggled recently with a point drought that reached eight games. A significant aspect is this. Coleman now has two instances of four or more shots on goal in his last three games. The forward is still below his 11% shooting percentage which means he may be due for a few more goals in the future.

The 29-year-old missed the team's season opener against Edmonton due to a suspension he picked up during the preseason. Coleman was signed to a six-year deal in the summer following his successful run in Tampa. He collected 31 points in 55 regular-season games last season and delivered 109 hits. Coleman will be on the third line Monday night, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on him as he also spent time on the top line during the preseason and will have every chance to work his way up the lineup.
Calgary Flames forward Blake Coleman has been banned for one preseason and one regular season contest following a boarding penalty in his team's preseason game on Wednesday night. The 29-year-old, who is coming off two consecutive Stanley Cup Championships with the Lightning, inked a six-year, $29.4 million ($4.9 mil AAV) with Calgary over the summer. Coleman will miss the team's season-opener on October 16 but should make his Flames debut on October 18. The Texas native (who is 41% owned in Yahoo! leagues) recorded 31 points (14 goals, 17 assists), a plus-15 rating, 122 shots and 109 hits in 55 contests in 2020-2021
Blake Coleman, an unrestricted free agent, signed a massive six-year contract with the Calgary Flames. The late-bloomer will come with a $4.9 million annual cap hit to fill a middle-six role with the club. The 29-year-old is a veteran of just five NHL seasons. He's coming off a season with the Tampa Bay Lightning that saw him score 14 goals and add 31 points in 55 games while average more than 15 minutes per game. Coleman is known for finishing his checks and playing a gritty style of hockey. He's also taken more than 200 shots per season twice in his career and has surpassed the 20-goal mark twice. He'll have some value in regular fantasy leagues but will get a boost in leagues that value hits. Coleman will also likely see more ice time in Calgary than he saw in Tampa Bay.
