Rotowire
Stromgren scored twice and added an assist in AHL Calgary's 4-3 win over San Jose on Saturday.
Stromgren has consecutive three-point efforts after an 11-game span without such a performance. For the season, the 22-year-old winger is up to 10 goals, 37 points and a plus-6 rating over 45 appearances. Stromgren has displayed growth in the last couple of AHL campaigns, so it seems to be only a matter of time before he's pushing for regular NHL minutes.

Flames' William Stromgren: Receives first call-up to NHL
Rotowire
Stromgren was called up by the Flames on Monday.
After showcasing a bundle of promise with AHL Calgary this season, Stromgren will join the NHL club for the first time. He was selected 45th overall by the Flames in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and has steadily improved his point production in each of the three full seasons he has played with the AHL club. Through 33 games this year, the 22-year-old winger has six goals, 23 assists, a plus-13 rating and a 17.1 shooting percentage. He'll look to spark Calgary's offense, which currently ranks 27th in the league with 2.66 goals per game this season, but his playing time with the NHL club may not be as consistent as it has been in the AHL.

Flames' William Stromgren: Deals three helpers Sunday
Rotowire
Stromgren posted three assists in AHL Calgary's 4-3 overtime win over Abbotsford on Sunday.
Stromgren had primary helpers on the Wranglers' last three goals in the comeback win. He's now eight games removed from his last goal, but he has six assists in that span. The 22-year-old has elevated his game this season, earning 20 points (two goals, 18 helpers) over 25 appearances while adding a plus-12 rating. He was regarded more for his shot as a younger prospect but has leaned into playmaking since he reached the AHL, so the Flames may be waiting for his game to round out before he gets a call-up.

Flames' William Stromgren: Three points for Wranglers
Rotowire
Stromgren scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Calgary's 6-4 win over Henderson on Saturday.
The goal was Stromgren's first of the season. Other than a lack of goals, the winger has been pretty good with 12 points over 15 outings. He showed some promise with 14 goals and 49 points over 70 regular-season outings a year ago. Stromgren is a second-round pick from 2021 and signed his entry-level deal in 2023, so he's in a contract year this season. He's shown enough playmaking potential to stick in the Flames' long-term plans.
