Impact Bahl started and ended November with assists in consecutive contests, but he had just one other helper over the 11 games in between.

Bahl is well on his way to surpassing his career high of 11 points from last season with the Devils.

FLAMES MAILBAG: Thoughts on Kevin Bahl, Yegor Sharangovich and the power play I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Kevin Bahl. By eye, he’s a steady presence who can erase offensive zone entries with a very long wrong reach.

NOVEMBER 21, 2024 • CALGARYHERALD.COM

Assists in consecutive games Bahl notched an assist, three shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers.

Produces helper Sunday Bahl notched an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Oilers.

Impact Bahl has two helpers, four shots on net, four hits, two blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over three contests. The Flames have scored 16 goals as a team, so it's no surprise they're getting contributions from all over the lineup. Bahl is locked in as a top-four defenseman, though the bulk of his fantasy production will come from hits, blocks and PIM even if he's able to surpass his career high of 11 points from last season.

Supplies assist in overtime win Bahl notched an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Canucks.

Impact Bahl got on the scoresheet in his Flames debut, assisting on a Martin Pospisil goal in the third period.

He had a career year in 2023-24 with 11 points, 151 hits, 103 blocked shots and 82 PIM in 82 games last season, so he could offer fantasy value in banger formats, but he's unlikely to score enough to help in standard leagues.

Good to play Wednesday Bahl (lower body) is expected to play in Wednesday's preseason game against Winnipeg, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

Impact Bahl had a goal, 11 points, 82 PIM, 151 hits and 103 blocks in 82 contests with the Devils last season. He averaged 17:24 of ice time in 2023-24, but he might see his role increase in Calgary after being traded over the summer. However, Bahl isn't expected to serve on either power-play unit, and he'll probably finish the campaign with under 20 points.

OCTOBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to ice Bahl (lower body) skated for the first time since training camp began last week, according to Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

Impact Bahl seems to be making progress in his recovery, but it's currently unclear if he'll be able to get into any preseason action. The 24-year-old is expected to fill a major role for Calgary after being traded by the Devils in the Jacob Markstrom deal. Bahl could push for a top-four spot on Calgary's blueline, but he'll have competition in the form of fellow defenseman Jake Bean (undisclosed). Bahl recorded 11 points while playing in all 82 regular-season contests with New Jersey in 2023-24.

Impact Bahl played in all 82 regular-season games last year in which he garnered one goal on 63 shots, 10 assists and 151 hits. The 24-year-old blueliner still has plenty of time to get back to 100 percent ahead of Opening Night versus Vancouver on Oct. 9. Even if he is available for all 82 games this year, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on a lot of offensive output from the shutdown defenseman.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Thursday Bahl will not practice Thursday and is considered day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Impact Bahl was dealt to Calgary in June, with Jacob Markstrom going to New Jersey. Bahl is expected to be a second-pairing defenseman this season. The 24-year-old had only a goal and 11 points in 82 regular-season games in 2023-24, but he did manage 151 hits and 103 blocked shots for the Devils.

The 23-year-old was originally taken by Arizona with the No. 55 overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, but ended up being included in the package that sent Taylor Hall to the Coyotes in 2019. Bahl might have a shot at a top-four spot in Calgary, but that is far from guaranteed.
