Cooley allowed three goals on 33 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.
Cooley's nemesis in this game was Mikael Granlund, who erased both of the Flames' leads and scored at 4:59 of overtime. This was still a decent outing for Cooley, but he wasn't able to extend his winning run to three games. The 28-year-old netminder slipped to 9-9-5 with a 2.51 GAA and a .915 save percentage over 27 appearances. He's alternating starts with Dustin Wolf currently, and if that trend continues, it'll be Wolf at home versus the Canucks on Saturday before Cooley would be tasked with a tough road matchup in Colorado on Monday.

Flames' Devin Cooley: Sharp in shootout win
Rotowire
Cooley stopped 26 of 27 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout win over the Blues.
Cooley had lost his last four results, giving up 15 goals over five appearances in that span.

Cooley is up to 8-9-4 with a 2.47 GAA and a .916 save percentage across 25 appearances while operating in the backup role behind Dustin Wolf this season. Expect Wolf to get the nod Friday versus the Panthers, but Cooley has played at least once every three games over the last two months.

Flames' Devin Cooley: Allows six goals Monday
Rotowire
Cooley stopped 22 of 28 shots on net in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Capitals.
Despite posting a clean second period while the Flames tied the game at three, Cooley allowed a trio of goals in both the first and third periods. With Monday's loss, the 28-year-old netminder now has a 7-8-4 record, a 2.45 GAA and a .917 save percentage across 23 outings this season. He has been held out of the win column in each of his four starts since the Olympic break. Despite his strong overall numbers that are tagged to a decent sample size, his value in fantasy is best served as a streaming option in deep leagues that prioritize saves. While Dustin Wolf is likely in line to start Calgary's second game of a back-to-back Tuesday, Cooley has a solid chance to appear in the team's contest Thursday against New Jersey.

Flames' Devin Cooley: Solid in loss
Rotowire
Cooley stopped 33 of 35 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Senators. The last two goals were empty-netters.
Cooley's performance kept it close until the Senators' pair of empty-netters closed it out. The 28-year-old netminder has just one win over his last seven outings (1-3-2) despite allowing a modest 16 goals on 220 shots in that span (.927 save percentage). Cooley dropped to 7-7-4 with a 2.27 GAA and a .923 save percentage through 22 appearances this season. He still makes for a decent matchup-based streamer in fantasy when he gets the nod, and Cooley may see more playing time down the stretch to avoid saddling Dustin Wolf with too heavy a workload. The Flames' netminders are to be avoided in Saturday's home game versus the Hurricanes.

Flames' Devin Cooley: Handed shootout loss
Rotowire
Cooley gave up two goals on 36 shots in Sunday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Ducks.
Cooley put in a good effort, but a bad bounce and a power-play snipe, both by Cutter Gauthier, led to the two goals against Cooley in regulation time. The Ducks added two tallies in the shootout to get the win. Cooley continues to be one of the better backups in the NHL, providing a steady option to give Dustin Wolf a breather from time to time. Cooley is 7-6-4 with a 2.24 GAA and a .923 save percentage over 20 appearances. Fantasy managers in weekly formats may want to steer clear of the 28-year-old for the week ahead, as the Flames host three of the NHL's top 11 offenses with games against the Stars on Tuesday, the Senators on Thursday and the Hurricanes on Sunday.

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

Flames' Devin Cooley: Beaten three times Thursday
Rotowire
Cooley stopped 20 of 23 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Wild. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
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.
