Outlook Devin Cooley

Devin Cooley confirmed to start as Flames host Wild at Scotiabank Saddledome

Devin Cooley gets the nod tonight as the Calgary Flames host the Minnesota Wild at Scotiabank Saddledome, setting up a goaltending duel vs Jesper Wallstedt (confirmed). Cooley recently turned heads with an impressive 34-save upset victory over Carolina, though his recent stretch reflects early-season volatility with a 4.50 GAA and .864 save percentage across two games. The Flames (2–6–0) enter tonight as home underdogs in an elevated scoring environment against a solid Wild club (6–3–2), while Calgary skates without injured forwards Mikael Backlund and Jonathan Huberdeau.

Our projection anticipates Cooley handling ~26 saves alongside a 3.14 GAA and a .894 save percentage, leaving him with a modest win chance. Calgary has two total games scheduled on the slate this week, leaving just one contest against Detroit after tonight, where Dustin Wolf will likely reclaim primary duties. Given the tough opponent and Calgary's thinned lineup, Cooley is a high-risk volume target who could see plenty of rubber. Today's action: Cautious Start.
