Cooley will tend the twine on the road in Thursday's preseason game versus the Kraken, per the NHL media site.
Cooley stopped 19 of 22 shots in a 4-2 loss versus the Kraken in Calgary on Sunday. He'll get another shot in Seattle as he makes his second preseason appearance. Cooley was effective in the backup role in 2025-26, and he'll likely see similar usage behind Dustin Wolf in 2026-27, though the weakness of the Flames' roster could make it difficult to replicate last year's numbers.
