FN’s mid-season Flames prospect updates: Eric Jamieson

Eric Jamieson is one of a handful of Calgary Flames prospects who started their NCAA career in 2025-26.

Of the 10 players that the Flames drafted in the 2024 draft, three of them played their 2024-25 season in the Canadian Hockey League before embarking to the NCAA. Jamieson joined the University of Denver, Luke Misa joined Penn State, and Henry Mews joined Michigan. Additionally, Jaden Lipinski joined Maine, but he was a 2023 draftee.

Of the four, Jamieson has found the greatest success, a big reason for that is because Mews suffered a season-ending injury early in the season. That isn’t to take away from Jamieson by any means. 

The former Everett Silvertips left-shot defenceman was trusted to play alongside potential generational talent Landon DuPont in his final season in the Western Hockey League, potting a career-high 14 goals and 36 points in 66 games as the Silvertips were one of the best teams in the CHL.

Jamieson has found success in his first season with Denver as well. Through 33 games this season, the Calgary product has six goals and 15 points, along with 41 penalty minutes and a +8. Much of his scoring was grouped earlier in the season, basically in 2025. Over his first 18 games, Jamieson had six goals and 13 points, but has been held to just two assists over his last 14 games.

The thing is, Jamieson is a defenceman known for his defence, so any scoring is just an added bonus. Among Denver defencemen, Jamieson’s 15 points are the third most on the team, behind fellow Eric Pohlkamp (16 goals, 31 points) and Boston Buckberger (eight goals, 24 points). It’s worth noting that Jamieson has spent time alongside Pohlkamp throughout the season.

Jamieson and Denver are in good standing as we rapidly approach the end of the season. Over 22 in-conference games in the National College Hockey Conference, Denver has 46 points, second only to North Dakota’s 47 points in 20 games.

The goal for Jamieson is to help Denver push as far as possible in the end-of-season tournament, as well as the national tournament. Last season, Denver finished in the Frozen Four (alongside Penn State’s Arsenii Sergeev), but ultimately fell to the winners, Western Michigan. Denver won their 10th title just two seasons ago, so you have to imagine they’re a strong contender to win once again.
