12 Flames listed in Daily Faceoff’s top 300 Fantasy Hockey player ranking

Training camps are going to be getting underway across the National Hockey League fairly shortly. And following in the footsteps of training camp, as the regular season creeps closer, are fantasy hockey drafts and other prep for the coming season.

Our pals over at Daily Faceoff have worked hard to put together a consensus list of the top 300 fantasy hockey players, featuring input from five different individual rankings.

A dozen Calgary Flames players made the top 300. Here’s where they landed.

76: Nazem Kadri

The Flames have three players that could be touted as their most important, and that trio is clustered fairly close together on the consensus list.

First up? Nazem Kadri, the team’s most important offensive player. Their top-line centre and leading scorer last season, he posted 35 goals and 67 points last season, edging out Jonathan Huberdeau for the team lead by seven goals and five points. Until the Flames acquire or develop another high-end centre, Kadri is going to be first over the boards in every important offensive situation.

78: Dustin Wolf

Next up, Dustin Wolf! After being on a tear in lower leagues for four seasons after being drafted in 2019, Wolf dipped his toe into the NHL waters in 2023-24 and was… fine! He became a full-time NHLer in 2024-25 and after splitting time with Dan Vladar in the first half, he was given the reins in the second half. He ended up winning 29 games and getting consideration for the Calder, Hart and Vezina trophies. He’ll be the undisputed top netminder from the opening puck drop, so we’ll see what he can do with a broader canvas to paint on.

84: MacKenzie Weegar

Lastly, here’s MacKenzie Weegar, who’s important now and will become even more important whenever Rasmus Andersson is traded. Weegar’s entering his fourth season with the Flames and he’s been consistently good and occasionally great. He had 47 points last season and was a plus-18 on a team that struggled to score much at five-on-five. He’s first over the boards in every game situation and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

147: Jonathan Huberdeau

After a couple seasons looking a bit lost in the Flames’ checking system, Huberdeau flipped a switch in mid 2023-24 and continued to build up his 200-foot game in 2024-25. Huberdeau may not be as strong at the checking details as Weegar is – after all, Weegar is a blueliner – but Huberdeau’s attention to detail away from the puck has come a long way and so he’s playing more and having more of an impact. He had 62 points in 2024-25 and could be pushing for more in 2025-26.

174: Matt Coronato

Matt Coronato had his first full NHL season in 2024-25 after impressing in college and the AHL, and he posted 24 goals and 47 points. Simply put: he’s still learning, probably still getting better, and he finished behind just Kadri and Huberdeau in points last season. He could be primed for a bigger offensive output.

212: Zayne Parekh

One of the most exciting prospects in the entire NHL, it sure does seem like Zayne Parekh will become a full-time NHLer in 2025-26. It’s hard to really guess how big his offensive output will be, but he seems like someone that will get power play time and, like Wolf was treated in 2024-25, he’ll be used in situations where he can succeed.

226: Rasmus Andersson

At some point, Andersson will probably be traded. But before he does, he’ll be playing a ton in every game situation. He posted a scary-bad minus-38 in 2024-25, a product of some bad puck luck, a few gaffes, and the team just not scoring much at five-on-five. He’s hoping for a better outcome this season.

242: Blake Coleman

Blake Coleman scored 30 goals in 2023-24. He was on a bit of a shooting percentage heater that season. He’s probably not a 30-goal player, but he’s a savvy checker whose line usually has the puck, so he’s probably better than the 15 goals and 39 points he had in 2024-25.

260: Yegor Sharangovich

Yegor Sharangovich scored 31 goals in 2023-24. He, too, was on a bit of a shooting percentage heater that season. He scored 17 in 2024-25. His time with the Flames has seen him go through hot streaks in terms of generating all sorts of chances (and goals), and generating far less of both, so we’ll see which side of his game appears more often in 2025-26.

269: Mikael Backlund

Mikael Backlund has been the Flames’ most effective two-way forward for well over a decade. He’ll turn 37 in March. Eventually age will catch up with him, right? Right? But for right now, he remains the team’s go-to tough minutes option.

281: Connor Zary

Connor Zary is a full-time NHLer, but the young forward is still carving out a niche for himself. If he can stay healthy, and carve out a specific role, he could be a bargain in later rounds.

291: Martin Pospisil

Martin Pospisil has shown flashes of brilliance, but with the Flames’ forward group full of players with clearer roles, he’s bounced around the lineup a bit over the last couple seasons. If he can find a more consistent role, perhaps he could have value late in drafts.
