Impact Mantha was injured in Tuesday's clash with Montreal and now should be expected to be sidelined for at least the Flames' next three contests. Prior to getting hurt, the 30-year-old winger was finding his stride with three points in his last four outings. Barring a long-term injury, Mantha should still be capable of pushing for the 40-point mark after racking up 44 points in 74 regular-season outings with Vegas and Washington last year.

The winger is up to four goals, three helpers, 14 shots on net, 16 hits, 11 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 12 contests. He'll likely continue to play in a middle-six role at even strength while also seeing power-play time.

Bags apple in win Mantha notched an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Friday's 3-0 win over the Devils.

Impact Mantha began the contest on the fourth line, but he was moved up to the third line when Andrei Kuzmenko was benched for poor performance. After enduring a recent six-game slump, Mantha has a goal and an assist over his last two outings. The winger is up to six points, 10 shots on net, 11 PIM, 14 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 11 appearances this season. His streaky scoring will make him prone to moving around the lineup, and it remains to be seen where he'll slot in for Sunday's game versus the Oilers.

Mantha can be a streaky scorer and often doesn't make a large impact outside of offense, so he's a streaming option in fantasy. He's at five points, nine shots on net, nine PIM, 12 hits, six blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 10 appearances.

He's playing on a line with Martin Pospisil and Jonathan Huberdeau, which was the Flames' best forward combination in Saturday's win.

Strong showing in team debut Mantha scored a shorthanded goal, dished an assist, added seven PIM and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Canucks.

Impact Mantha mixed it up with J.T. Miller twice in the first period. After a roughing minor, Mantha was able to collect the puck coming out of the penalty box to score the Flames' first goal of the season. The winger then fought Miller near the end of the frame, and in the third period, Mantha set up Martin Pospisil's goal to complete a Gordie Howe hat trick. While he has a larger frame, Mantha isn't known for being particularly physical. He has a good 2023-24 with 23 goals and 44 over 74 appearances between Washington and Vegas, and he's poised to see consistent top-six minutes and power-play time after signing with the Flames in July.
