Daniil Miromanov Clears Waivers, Giving Flames Roster Flexibility

The move provides near-complete cap relief and positions Calgary to prepare for Martin Pospisil’s return.

Overview

  • Miromanov cleared waivers Tuesday after being placed on the wire Monday, making him eligible for assignment to the AHL’s Calgary Wranglers.
  • An AHL assignment would bury $1.15 million of his $1.25 million cap hit, leaving a $100,000 charge on the NHL roster.
  • Calgary can shuttle Miromanov between leagues without waivers until he accrues 30 NHL days or dresses for 10 NHL games.
  • The transaction is intended to open a roster spot for injured forward Martin Pospisil, who has not yet skated with the main group.
  • The 28-year-old right-shot defenseman has appeared in one of the Flames’ first six games after playing 44 games last season following his 2024 acquisition tied to the Noah Hanifin trade.
