Cooley stopped 36 of 39 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

This was Cooley's first Battle of Alberta appearance, and he was able to protect the 4-3 lead Ryan Lomberg's goal created at 6:44 of the third period. The 28-year-old Cooley has gone 3-2-1 over his last six outings, allowing just 12 goals in that span. For the season, he's up to 7-6-3 with a 2.27 GAA and a .921 save percentage over 19 appearances. Cooley is still the backup to Dustin Wolf, but the duo seems to have found some success alternating starts in recent weeks. It remains to be seen if that pattern will continue after the Olympic break.

Cooley will be in goal at home versus Edmonton on Wednesday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has a three-game losing streak despite posting a decent 2.34 GAA over that stretch. While the backstop's ratios have been solid this season -- a 2.22 GAA and .921 save percentage in 18 outings -- he's not getting enough work to make him a strong fantasy candidate outside of some spot starts.

Cooley stopped 20 of 23 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Wild. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has lost each of his past three starts, but win-loss record aside, his performances haven't been all that bad. He has allowed three or fewer goals in each of his last six starts dating back to Dec. 20, going 3-2-1 with a 2.00 GAA and an impressive .933 save percentage over that stretch. Cooley should remain in a backup role behind Dustin Wolf, so his fantasy upside will be matchup-based in a best-case scenario, but his recent form suggests he's worth a look in specific situations when he's confirmed as the starter.

Cooley wasn't on the ice for Thursday's optional morning skate, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports, indicating that he's slated to start on the road against Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has alternated starts with Dustin Wolf for most of January, and that trend should continue during Thursday's matchup. Cooley has been solid over the past several weeks, going 2-1-1 with a 1.50 GAA and .950 save percentage across his last four outings.

Cooley stopped 35 of 37 shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Capitals. The third goal was an empty-netter with 53 seconds left in the game.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has lost his last two starts, but he has been solid between the pipes. Through four appearances in January, he has gone 2-1-1 with a 1.50 GAA and an outstanding .950 save percentage. He has been sharing the Calgary crease with Dustin Wolf, and if that trend continues, Cooley could start Thursday's road game against Minnesota.

Cooley will start Friday's home game against the Capitals, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

A previous report from Steinberg indicated that Dustin Wolf would draw the start Friday, but Cooley will ultimately draw the start, continuing the timeshare that the two netminders have had over the past two weeks. Across his last three starts, Cooley has gone 2-0-1 with a 1.33 GAA and .952 save percentage.

Cooley stopped 29 of 31 shots in Monday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley hasn't suffered a defeat in regulation since Dec. 10, going 3-0-1 with a 1.74 GAA and a .941 save percentage over that stretch. Cooley has made three appearances in January and has allowed two or fewer goals each time. If the rotation between the posts continues, Cooley could be in line to start Friday at home against the Capitals, with Dustin Wolf likely getting the nod against the Penguins on Wednesday.

Cooley will patrol the home crease against New Jersey on Monday, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has won his last three outings while stopping 83 of the 88 shots he has faced. He has a 6-4-2 record with a 2.20 GAA and a .921 save percentage through 15 appearances this campaign. New Jersey is tied with the Flames for 28th in the league with 2.58 goals per game this season.

Cooley stopped 22 of 23 shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley was steady aside from giving up a goal to Nick Foligno at 2:38 of the first period. The 28-year-old Cooley has started two of the last three games, winning both of those outings while allowing just two goals on 51 shots. For the season, he's at a 6-4-2 record with a 2.20 GAA and a .921 save percentage. Dustin Wolf will still get most of the starts, but Cooley has been excellent in the backup role when he gets the nod.
