Frolik collected an assist through 18:30 of ice time during Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
With two goals and two assists through his past five games, Frolik is beginning to provide more consistent offense. He's locked into a solid even-strength line with Mikael Backlund and Matthew Tkachuk, and considering their long-standing chemistry, there's a good chance the trio continues to click moving forward. The veteran Czech is a potential add in deep settings, but his upside is definitely capped by his lack of power-play time.

Frolik collected two assists in Sunday's win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik has collected four points in seven games since returning from a broken jaw and is playing well on the second line with Mathew Tkachuk. He's only scored eight times in 44 games and never sees power-play time, but Frolik holds some fantasy value in deeper formats due to his top six-role. The streaky scorer could be worth a look as the Flames try and battle for a playoff spot.

Frolik set up a goal and finished with a minus-1 rating in Tuesday's loss to Vegas.
EDGE Analysis
Tuesday's contest was Frolik's first since breaking his jaw on Dec. 28, missing 12 games during that span. With the assist, Frolik now has seven goals and 16 points in 38 games, which places his scoring rate at 0.42 points per game -- slightly lower than his career average of 0.47. Now that the Jaromir Jagr experiment is over in Calgary, Frolik should be able to firmly establish himself as a top-six forward in the lineup.

Frolik (jaw) will take the ice for Tuesday match against Vegas, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
EDGE Analysis
After being sidelined for 12 games with his ailment, Frolik will seek to build off the 15 points (seven goals, eight assists) he put up in 37 games before he broke his jaw. The 29-year-old skated on his typical line with Matthew Tkachuk and Mikael Backlund in practice, and Curtis Lazar should shift back to the press box.

Frolik (jaw) won't return until after the NHL All-Star break, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik -- who is currently on injured reserve -- took part in practice with his teammates Sunday, albeit in a non-contact jersey. Based on the announced timeline, the earliest the winger could slot back into the lineup is Jan. 30 versus the Golden Knights.

Frolik (jaw), unsurprisingly, was designated for injured reserve Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Already considered week-to-week, Frolik's injury required surgery Saturday, per John Shannon of Sportsnet. The team didn't announce a specific timeline for the winger's return, but one has to imagine he won't be back in the short term. Garnet Hathaway should see an uptick in ice time due to Frolik's absence along with Andrew Mangiapane being called up from the minors to fill out the 23-man roster.

Frolik suffered a broken jaw during Thursday's game against the Sharks and has been termed week-to-week, Peter Loubardias of The Fan 960 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik was hit in the face by a shot from Sharks defenseman Brent Burns and unfortunately suffered a sizable injury as a result. A more concrete timeline for return will likely be established when he draws closer to a return, but the winger will miss at least a week or two as a result. Coach Glen Gultzan indicated that the Flames don't intend to reach into the AHL for additional depth up front, suggesting the team will stick with its current roster.

Frolik exited Thursday's game against the Sharks after being hit in the face with a shot from San Jose's Brent Burns, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The severity of Frolik's injury remains unclear, but the 29-year-old winger should be considered questionable at best for Friday's game against the Ducks at this juncture. The Flames should release another update on the 2006 first-round pick's status following Friday's morning skate.

Frolik recorded a goal and six shots during Thursday's 3-2 loss to San Jose.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran winger has now gone 18 games without a multi-point showing and has just four goals and two assists during that stretch. Frolik's two-way acumen makes him a far more valuable real-world player than virtual asset, but double-digit goals and another run at 40 points aren't out of the question yet. Still, the 29-year-old Czech is likely best left to the waiver wire outside of deep settings.

Frolik potted his fifth goal of the season in Saturday's loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik has contributed 11 points through 26 contests and is on track for another decent campaign. He's put up four straight 15-plus-goal seasons in the 40-point range, so at least you know what you're getting. The second-liner won't wow you with his production, but his fairly consistent offensive output makes him worth owning in some deeper formats.
