Hunter Brzustewicz - NHL News & Rumors

Returns to AHL Brzustewicz was reassigned to AHL Calgary on Wednesday.

Impact Brzustewicz was scratched for a third straight game Wednesday versus the Oilers. The 21-year-old defenseman will get consistent playing time at least through the Olympic break while with the Wranglers, but it's likely he'll be back with the big club when the NHL schedule resumes.

Scores first NHL goal Brzustewicz scored a goal in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.

Impact This was Brzustewicz's first NHL goal, and it gave the Flames a 2-0 lead at 7:56 of the first period. The 21-year-old defenseman has been scratched for four of the Flames' 12 contests in January, which is likely part of the development curve for him. He'll compete with Brayden Pachal and Joel Hanley for third-pairing minutes until Zayne Parekh (upper body) returns from a conditioning assignment at AHL Calgary.

Picks up first NHL point Brzustewicz notched an assist in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact The 21-year-old rookie recorded his first NHL point in his 12th game when he helped set up a Joel Farabee tally late in the second period. Brzustewicz, a third-round pick in the 2023 Draft, has yet to make a big impact as he gets his feet wet in the pros, but he flashed his offensive upside in his final season with OHL Kitchener back in 2023-24, racking up 13 goals and 92 points in 67 games.

Elevated from minors Brzustewicz was called up from AHL Calgary on Monday.

Impact Brzustewicz's promotion would seem to indicate that there is an injury among the Flames' blueliners ahead of Monday's clash with the Sabres. While the 21-year-old defenseman is far from a lock to play, he could offer the team some offensive upside, having tallied four goals and eight helpers in 23 minor-league games for the Wranglers.

Nets two goals in AHL win Brzustewicz scored twice in AHL Calgary's 4-3 win over Coachella Valley on Saturday.

Impact Brzustewicz is showing plenty of offense early in the AHL campaign, logging three goals and three helpers over six contests. The 20-year-old defenseman still needs some time in the AHL, but if the struggling Flames start selling early this year, he could be in line for a call-up, especially if Rasmus Andersson is one of the players on the move. Like Andersson, Brzustewicz is a right-shot defenseman.

APRIL 16, 2025 • CALGARYHERALD.COM

Called up by NHL club Brzustewicz was recalled from AHL Calgary on Wednesday.

Impact Brzustewicz hasn't yet made his NHL debut, but he'll join the Flames ahead of Thursday's regular-season finale in Los Angeles. Over 69 appearances with the Wranglers this year, he's recorded five goals, 26 assists and 12 PIM.

APRIL 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Solid in first pro season Brzustewicz has generated three goals and 15 assists in 46 games for AHL Calgary this season.

Impact Brzustewicz's numbers may not blow away fantasy managers but the 2023 third-round pick is looking solid in his first professional campaign. Even with the decent production, the 20-year-old defenseman is unlikely to earn a call-up this season or will serve as little more than an emergency depth option if he does.

Inks entry-level deal Brzustewicz signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Flames on Thursday.

Impact Brzustewicz was included in the package Calgary received from Vancouver in the Elias Lindholm trade. The 2023 third-round pick has spent the 2023-24 campaign with the OHL's Kitchener Rangers, racking up 12 goals and 85 points through 62 contests. The 19-year-old defender could make the jump to the AHL in 2024-25, but he could also end up spending another season in the OHL.

Impact Brzustewicz was seen as a steal as a third-round pick in 2023, and he's done nothing to dispel that notion. The 19-year-old leads all OHL defensemen with 69 points in just 47 games for Kitchener. While Kuzmenko is the NHL-ready part of the package for the Flames, Brzustewicz could ultimately end up being the long-term play. He has not yet signed his entry-level contract.
