Prospect Jeremie Poirier of the Calgary Flames will have a difficult road to recovery after suffering an injury while playing for the AHL's Wranglers.

Poirier, the Flames' third-round selection (72nd overall) in 2020, required surgery after sustaining a serious arm laceration in a recent game. His ability to play hockey again is uncertain because of this injury.
Poirier had been making waves in the AHL, ranking as the league's second-highest scorer among defensemen. However, his absence due to injury adds to the growing list of sidelined players within the Flames organization.
In the NHL roster, the Flames are contending with the unavailability of key players, including Oliver Kylington (undisclosed/personal), Jakob Pelletier (shoulder), and Kevin Rooney (shoulder). Meanwhile, the Flames' AHL affiliate, the Wranglers, is also grappling with injuries to Axel Hurtig and Samuel Honzek.
This setback underscores the challenges faced by the Flames as they navigate the season with multiple players out of the lineup due to various injuries.
