Hurt in Tuesday's game Zary (lower body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Ducks, Eric Francis of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Zary got the worst of a knee-on-knee hit from Drew Helleson in the second period and was in substantial pain as he left the ice. The 23-year-old Zary could be looking at a significant absence given the nature of the collision -- it's doubtful he'll play Wednesday in Los Angeles at a minimum. Assuming he misses time, Yegor Sharangovich is likely to slide over to center while Walker Duehr would likely enter the lineup.

Zary's still listed on the third line, but he's been productive in that spot on a low-scoring team.

The 23-year-old is up to eight goals, 20 points (nine on the power play), 70 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 34 appearances.

Zary is up to seven goals, nine assists, 61 shots on net and a minus-8 rating over 30 contests, but he's trending in the right direction. His offense hasn't taken a step forward from last year (34 points in 63 games), though Zary has been learning to play center at the NHL level after spending much of 2023-24 on the wing.

The 23-year-old center is up to six goals, 14 points, 57 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 28 appearances. Zary is still working on consistency at the NHL level, but he's producing enough offense to be worth a look in deeper redraft formats while retaining plenty of value in keeper and dynasty leagues.

Impact Zary had been held off the scoresheet in the previous three games. He snapped the slump by setting up a Matthew Coronato tally in the second period to tie the game at 2-2. The 23-year-old Zary has dropped down the lineup over the last couple of games, centering the third line instead of the top line. He's at 13 points (six on the power play), 54 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 27 outings. The Flames have rarely settled on line combinations for long, so Zary could get a larger role again in the near future.

Impact Zary has struggled to find consistent offense with just two tallies over his last 12 outings.

Zary is now at four goals, nine points, 45 shots, 13 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 20 appearances. Fantasy managers in redraft formats should keep an eye on where he's lining up, but he's won't be a must-have player until he contribute more regularly.
