Parekh (upper body) scored twice in AHL Calgary's 6-3 win over Laval on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
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.

EDGE Analysis
Parekh has 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.

EDGE Analysis
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.

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

Parekh (upper body) isn't available Saturday versus Pittsburgh, per Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
EDGE Analysis
Parekh has an assist in 11 outings with Calgary in 2025-26. He joined Team Canada for the 2026 IIHF World Junior Championship, but it appears that he sustained an injury during the tournament. Parekh stood out 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.

Parekh is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury and will miss Thursday's clash with Boston.
EDGE Analysis
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.

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.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Parekh (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Friday and loaned to Team Canada for the 2026 World Junior Championship.
EDGE Analysis
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.

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

Parekh (upper body) is week-to-week and has been placed on injured reserve, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
EDGE Analysis
Calgary recalled Daniil Miromanov in a corresponding move. Parekh absorbed a hit from Chicago's Nick Foligno on Friday in a 4-0 loss. The 19-year-old Parekh has already played 11 games this season, burning one year of his entry-level contract. However, that doesn't close the door on a potential return to junior hockey if the Flames want him to play more once he's healthy.
