2024 Fantasy Outlook
Zary accounted for 14 goals and 34 points in 63 appearances last season. He made an immediate impact after making his NHL debut in November, providing seven tallies and 10 assists in his first 23 contests. The 22-year-old forward was a good fit alongside Nazem Kadri, who led the team with 75 points in 82 games in 2023-24. Zary will likely claim a middle-six roster spot with the Flames out of training camp but could have his role altered. He might play more down the middle during the upcoming campaign, which could present an opportunity to skate between Jonathan Huberdeau and Anthony Mantha. Alternatively, Zary may take Kadri's place alongside Martin Pospisil and Andrei Kuzmenko. In any event, Zary should improve his numbers during his sophomore season, topping 40 points and exceeding 100 shots on net. Read Past Outlooks

Out indefinitely, no surgery needed

Lower Body
January 10, 2025
Zary's lower-body injury won't require surgery but he is considered out indefinitely, the Flames reported Friday.
ANALYSIS
Zary was injured in Tuesday's game against the Ducks, but it appears he has avoided a worst-case scenario. He will begin his rehab immediately, per the team, but there's no telling when he'll be able to make his return from injured reserve. Rory Kerins was called up when Zary went on IR and figures to take on a bottom-six role initially.
