Vladar will defend the road cage versus Dallas on Thursday, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar has appeared in just five of the Flames' last 23 contests but will be in the crease for the third time in the previous six outings. The uptick in opportunities for the netminder is likely aimed at keeping starter Dustin Wolf primed for a postseason push, rather than an indication that Vladar might take over the No. 1 job.

Vladar made 39 saves in a 3-0 loss to Florida on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar was the difference maker Saturday -- the Panthers held a 35-12 advantage in shots through the first two periods and a 66-23 edge in attempts, but the netminder allowed just two goals. Vladar's overall 8-11-5 record, 2.98 GAA and .894 save percentage don't impress, but it's games like this that show what he can do in short bursts. He's actually 2-1-0 in his last three starts with just six goals allowed. Vladar's name continues to swirl in trade rumors, and the Flames may try to get a draft pick back for his expiring contract by the deadline. He could have value in daily formats on a contender.

Vladar will guard the road net against the Panthers on Saturday, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar has won his last two outings, stopping 55 of 58 shots. He has posted a record of 8-10-5 with two shutouts, a 2.98 GAA and an .891 save percentage through 23 appearances this season. Florida sits seventh in the league with 3.28 goals per game in 2024-25.

Vladar stopped 26 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

He took a shutout bid into the third period, only to see it ruined by Alex Ovechkin on a Washington power play early in the final frame. Vladar continues to be used sparingly behind Dustin Wolf, but he's won both his starts in February after going 0-3-0 in January. On the season, Vladar sports an 8-10-5 record with a 2.98 GAA and .891 save percentage.

Vladar will tend the road twine Tuesday against the Capitals, per Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar made 29 saves in a 3-2 win over Seattle in his last start Feb. 2. Prior to that, the Czech Republic native had lost six straight outings. The Capitals sit first in the league with 3.70 goals per game and defeated the Oilers 7-3 on Sunday.

Vladar stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar improved to 6-1-1 against the Kraken in his career, riding the Flames' three-goal first period to the win. The Kraken made it interesting by tallying twice over the final two frames, but Vladar held firm when necessary. He ended his six-game losing skid, which dated back to Dec. 12. Vladar is now 7-10-5 with a 3.07 GAA and an .888 save percentage over 22 starts this season. He split time early in the season with Dustin Wolf, but Vladar has been firmly in the backup role since the calendar flipped to 2025. That said, neither goalie is a particularly strong option for the Flames' next two games, which are both at home, versus the Maple Leafs on Tuesday and the Avalanche on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar will get the second half of Calgary's back-to-back after Dustin Wolf played in Saturday's 3-1 loss to Detroit. The 27-year-old Vladar has surrendered 24 goals on 168 shots during his six-game (0-5-1) losing skid. He has a 6-10-5 record with a 3.12 GAA and an .886 save percentage across 21 appearances this season. Seattle ranks 14th in the league with 2.98 goals per game in 2024-25.

Vladar allowed five goals on 27 shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

The Jets took a 3-1 lead through two periods and added a pair of power-play goals when the Flames got undisciplined in the final frame. This sent Vladar to his sixth straight loss (0-5-1), a span in which he's allowed 24 goals. The 27-year-old has lost playing time lately due to the skid, as well as the strong performance of Dustin Wolf, who has won six of his last eight games. Vladar is down to 6-10-5 with a 3.12 GAA and an .886 save percentage over 21 starts. It'll likely be Wolf who draws a tough home start Tuesday versus the Capitals.

Vladar will guard the road goal against the Jets on Sunday, according to Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar will get the second half of Calgary's back-to-back after Dustin Wolf played in Saturday's 5-4 win over Minnesota. The 27-year-old Vladar has allowed 19 goals on 141 shots during his five-game (0-4-1) losing skid. He has a 6-9-5 record with two shutouts, a 3.03 GAA and an .889 save percentage through 20 appearances this season. Winnipeg ranks second in the league with 3.50 goals per game in 2024-25.

Vladar made 23 saves on 25 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

Vladar didn't have much of a chance on the Blues' game-winning goal, as Radek Faksa perfectly redirected Tyler Tucker's point shot into the top right corner of the net. Vladar is mired in a five-game losing streak -- his last win was Dec. 10 against Nashville. The 27-year-old has a 6-9-5 record, .889 save percentage and 3.03 GAA through 20 appearances in 2024-25. Dustin Wolf has firmly taken over as Calgary's No. 1 netminder after he and Vladar shared the workload for much of the early portion of the season.
