Rory Kerins - NHL News & Rumors

Re-ups with Calgary Kerins signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Flames on Thursday.

Impact Kerins had another strong campaign with AHL Calgary in 2025-26, earning 22 goals and 35 assists over 56 regular-season outings.

Per Ryan Pike of Flames Nation, Kerins will need to play 71 NHL games in 2026-27 to retain restricted free agent status. If he does not, he'll become a Group 6 unrestricted free agent if the Flames don't sign him to another deal.
