Flames’ Jake Bean To Undergo Surgery, Out Indefinitely

The decision follows four missed games after a season of limited usage with Calgary prioritizing younger defenders.

Overview

  • Head coach Ryan Huska said Bean will have surgery for a lingering, undisclosed injury and will be out indefinitely.
  • Bean has missed the past four games while the team conducted evaluations of the issue.
  • The 27-year-old has one goal and one assist in 16 games this season while averaging just under 16 minutes of ice time.
  • He has been a frequent healthy scratch as the Flames have worked in younger options such as Zayne Parekh and Hunter Brzustewicz.
  • Calgary sits at 30 points through 34 games and begins a home-heavy stretch by hosting the Seattle Kraken on Thursday.
