Devin Cooley is set to start for the Calgary Flames against the Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday in his first appearance since a lower-body injury on Oct. 28. Sportsnet reported the decision after Calgary’s morning skate. The game starts at 7 p.m. ET at Scotiabank Saddledome.

Cooley left the Oct. 28 game against the Edmonton Oilers after the first period. Calgary activated him from injured reserve on Thursday, and Dustin Wolf started Friday against Anaheim.

Cooley allowed six goals on 133 shots in the four starts before the Edmonton game. He is 4–3–0 this season with a 2.69 goals-against average and a .914 save percentage, according to NHL records.

The Flames also recalled Brayden Pachal from their AHL affiliate, the Calgary Wranglers, on Sunday. The defenceman had three assists in 11 games with the Wranglers this season.
