Vladar has not played or practiced since allowing eight goals on 26 shots (.692 SV%) in an 8-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning last week. The Flames' crease has been exclusively occupied by Dustin Wolf the last week but Vladar appears to be nearing a return.

With Dan Vladar (lower body) day-to-day, the Flames have recalled Cooley from the Calgary Wranglers (AHL). That said, if Vladar misses any time, Dustin Wolf will likely see all the action between the pipes for the Flames. The 27-year-old Cooley has a 1.80 GAA and .942 SV% in 18 games (14-3-0) with the Wranglers.

Adding insult to injury, Vladar is day-to-day with a lower-body injury just one day after allowing eight goals on 26 shots (.692 SV%) in an 8-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. If Vladar misses any time, Dustin Wolf will likely take the reins of the crease in Calgary.

Despite only winning two of his last four, the Flames will turn to Vladar between the pipes for the fifth time in the previous six games.

The 27-year-old Vladar has a 2.76 GAA and .897 SV5 in 15 games this season (6-5-4). The Flames enter Thursday's contest as +131 home underdogs against a Tampa Bay Lightning squad coming off a 2-1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.

Dustin Wolf was beaten six times in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Dallas Stars, and the Flames will revert to Vladar between the pipes on Tuesday against the Nashville Predators.
