Back from conditioning loan Parekh (upper body) was recalled from his conditioning loan from AHL Calgary on Saturday.

Impact Parekh had two goals and five points in four AHL outings during his conditioning stint. He has one assist, 11 shots on goal, five blocked shots and five hits in 11 NHL appearances this season. Assuming his upper-body injury isn't an issue anymore, he should be in the mix to play for the Flames before the Olympic break.

Conditioning stint going well Parekh (upper body) scored twice in AHL Calgary's 6-3 win over Laval on Monday.

Impact Parekh has two goals and two assists over three games during his conditioning stint in the AHL. The defenseman was loaned Jan. 17, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Flames end his loan prior to the end of the week, as it can last a maximum of 14 days. Once back with the big club, he'll compete with Joel Hanley, Hunter Brzustewicz and Brayden Pachal for playing time on the third pairing.

Sent to AHL for conditioning Parekh (upper body) was assigned to AHL on Calgary on Saturday for a conditioning loan.

Impact Parekh missed the last four games due to an injury, but it appears as though he is ready to test the issue with some playing time in the minors. He has registered one assist, 11 shots on goal, five blocked shots and five hits in 11 NHL appearances this season.

Won't play Thursday Parekh (upper body) will miss Thursday's game against Chicago, per the NHL media site.

Impact Parekh is believed to have sustained the injury while playing for Team Canada during the World Junior Championship. He has an assist in 11 outings with Calgary in 2025-26. He also contributed five goals and 13 points in seven appearances with Canada during the tournament. His next opportunity to return is Saturday versus the Islanders.

Still out Tuesday Parekh (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus the Blue Jackets, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Impact Parekh continues to recover from his injury, which is believed to have occurred during his time with Team Canada at the World Junior Championship. The 19-year-old defenseman is not a lock for the Flames' lineup once healthy, but he should play most of the time he's on the roster to gain experience.

Won't play Saturday Parekh (upper body) isn't available Saturday versus Pittsburgh, per Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

Impact Parekh has an assist in 11 outings with Calgary in 2025-26. He joined Team Canada for the 2026 World Junior Championship, but it appears that he sustained an injury during the tournament. Parekh did excel during the World Juniors, recording five goals and 13 points across seven outings. Parekh might get a top-six role with the Flames once he's healthy.

Dealing with upper-body injury Parekh was labeled day-to-day with an upper-body injury and will miss Thursday's clash with Boston.

Impact Parekh just rejoined the Flames following his stint with Team Canada for the World Junior Championship. It seems likely that the blueliner's injury is something he sustained while playing for Canada -- though it's unclear if it is the same problem that nearly prevented him from joining the junior team in the first place.

Joining team on road trip General manager Craig Conroy relayed Monday that Parekh (not injury related) will join the Flames on their upcoming five-game road trip, according to Eric Francis of Sportsnet.

Impact Parekh is set to rejoin the Flames after helping Team Canada win a bronze medal at the 2026 World Junior Championship. The 2024 first-round selection posted five goals, 13 points and a plus-5 rating over seven games during the tournament. Parekh has made just 11 appearances with the Flames this season, logging a power-play assist, 11 shots, five hits and five blocks while averaging 14:46 of ice time.

Activated, loaned to Team Canada Parekh (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Friday and loaned to Team Canada's U20 Junior team.

Impact Parekh could return to the Flames after the tournament, or Calgary could decide to return him to OHL Saginaw. Parekh had one assist in 11 games before he was hurt.

Lands on IR Parekh (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Impact Parekh is currently week-to-week, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him pop up on injured reserve. Considering the blueliner has featured in just two of the Flames' last nine outings, his continued absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy managers -- especially considering he has managed a single point in 11 games when healthy.

NOVEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Out week-to-week Per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan, Parekh (upper body) is considered week-to-week, according to head coach Ryan Huska on Saturday.

Impact Parekh absorbed a hard hit from Chicago's Nick Foligno on Friday in a 4-0 loss. Parekh has already played 11 games this season, burning one year of his entry-level contract and the Flames will have to decide upon his return, if they want to return him to junior hockey, where he will see plenty of action, rather than the 14:46 of ice time he is currently averaging. The Flames recalled Daniil Miromanov in a corresponding move Saturday.

Will miss time Parekh (upper body) will miss "a little bit of time" after sustaining an injury Friday versus the Blackhawks, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports.

Impact Head coach Ryan Huska's postgame update was not particularly concerning, but Parekh missing time is still disappointing. It's safe to assume the 19-year-old defenseman will miss upcoming road games versus Minnesota on Sunday and St. Louis on Tuesday at a minimum. Jake Bean is likely to reenter the lineup unless Kevin Bahl (undisclosed) overcomes his injury in time for the road trip.

Suffers upper-body injury Parekh (upper body) won't return to Friday's game versus the Blackhawks.

Impact Parekh was hurt on a Nick Foligno hit in the second period. The 19-year-old Parekh can be considered day-to-day for now. If he can't play Sunday in Minnesota and Kevin Bahl (undisclosed) remains out, Jake Bean will likely reenter the lineup for the Flames.

Healthy scratch Saturday Parekh will be a healthy scratch against Nashville on Saturday after recovering from an undisclosed ailment, Eric Francis of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Parekh has one assist, 11 shots on goal, four blocked shots and four hits in nine appearances this campaign. If he plays in one more NHL game, it will burn the first season of his entry-level deal. As a result, the Flames may decide to assign him to OHL Saginaw.

NOVEMBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Thursday Parekh (illness) will miss Thursday's tilt in Ottawa, per Eric Francis of Sportsnet.

Impact Parekh sat out the first two games of the season and had played in nine consecutive contests before Thursday. Look for Brayden Pachal to rejoin the lineup after being a healthy scratch in the last six games. Parekh has one assist in nine games this season and could return as early as Saturday in Nashville.
