Gilbert has played in just one of the Sabres' first 11 games. - Gilbert, a Buffalo native, played at home Oct. 12 versus the Panthers, logging three hits and a blocked shot in 4:49 of ice time. While not much has gone well for the Sabres at 4-6-1, they have a pretty firmly set top-four on defense, and that group has enjoyed good health early on. Gilbert could get the occasional look over Matias Samuelsson or Connor Clifton, but it's unlikely he'll see steady playing time this season. |

Gilbert signed a one-year, $825,000 contract with the Sabres on Monday. - Gilbert had a goal, seven points, 59 hits and 49 blocks in 34 appearances with the Flames in 2023-24. The 27-year-old has a real shot of making the Sabres' roster out of training camp, but even if Gilbert makes the team, he probably won't play much for Buffalo. |

Gilbert was scratched for 20 of the Flames' final 23 games this season. - Gilbert had a career year with seven points in 34 contests, but his playing time was sparse after the All-Star break. The physical defenseman is a pending unrestricted free agent and will likely have to settle for a two-way contract in 2024-25 after playing on a one-way deal the last two seasons. |

Gilbert hasn't played in the Flames' last 10 games. - While the Flames dealt away Chris Tanev and Noah Hanifin, they also brought in three other defensemen around the trade deadline. Gilbert has been the odd man out with the team carrying eight blueliners, and that may not change unless injuries arise. He has seven points and 58 hits over 33 contests this season. |

| Feb. 25, 2024 |
Gilbert has played just three times in the Flames' last 13 games. - Gilbert was a regular on the third pairing before suffering a concussion in January. He played three of four games after getting cleared to return, but he's been a scratch for all of February with waiver-claim Brayden Pachal and Oliver Kylington (personal) on the third pairing. Gilbert has seven points, 53 hits, 47 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 31 appearances. If the Flames trade Chris Tanev and Noah Hanifin, there may be room for Gilbert and fellow scratch Jordan Oesterle in the lineup down the stretch. |

Gilbert (concussion) was put on injured reserve Wednesday, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan. - If the move is retroactive to Jan. 4, which is when Gilbert last played, then he can be activated whenever he's healthy. However, it seems unlikely Calgary would put Gilbert on IR unless he was expected to miss at least the next game, which will take place Thursday against Toronto. The 27-year-old defenseman has a goal, seven points, 44 hits and 43 blocks in 28 outings in 2023-24. Gilbert will likely serve on the third pairing once he's recovered. |

Gilbert, who was previously listed as having an upper-body injury, has been in the concussion protocol. He's making progress and will travel with the Flames for their games in Arizona on Thursday and Vegas on Saturday, but the Flames defenseman isn't expected to participate in either contest, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan. - Gilbert has a goal, seven points, 16 PIM, 44 hits and 43 blocks in 28 contests with the Flames in 2023-24. He was last in the lineup Thursday. With Gilbert expected to miss more time, Yan Kuznetsov is projected to remain in the lineup. |

Gilbert (upper body) needed help getting off the ice after his head hit the ice following a slew-foot from Nashville's Philip Tomasino in Thursday's game, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports. - Gilbert was hurt late in the third period, so a clear update on his status is unlikely Thursday. The Flames' next game is Saturday versus the Flyers. Jordan Oesterle would likely enter the lineup if Gilbert is held out, either for concussion protocol or any other reason. |

Gilbert scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and blocked two shots in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Flyers. - Gilbert helped out on Mikael Backlund's game-tying goal in the second period before scoring the go-ahead marker in the third. The goal was Gilbert's first since Feb. 11. He received an even-strength promotion to a pairing with Rasmus Andersson for this game, but that's unlikely to have a substantial impact on Gilbert's offense. He's at a career-high seven points with 21 shots on net, 41 hits, 42 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 26 appearances. |
None |
| Dec. 19, 2023 |
Gilbert managed an assist and four blocked shots in Monday's 3-1 win over the Panthers. - Gilbert has three points over the last seven games. Even with Chris Tanev back from injury, Gilbert stuck in the lineup on the third pairing, while Jordan Oesterle was the scratch on defense Monday. Gilbert has produced five helpers, 16 shots on net, 37 hits, 33 blocked shots, 14 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 22 outings this season. He is expected to continue in a third-pairing role, though he's far from a guarantee to play every game. |
None |
| Dec. 11, 2023 |
Gilbert logged two assists, four hits, four blocked shots, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Avalanche. - With Chris Tanev (undisclosed) getting hurt on his first shift, Gilbert stepped into a top-four role with 20:26 of ice time. The result was Gilbert's best individual performance of the season despite the Flames' third-period collapse. The 27-year-old doubled his point total to four assists through 18 appearances. He's added 14 shots on net, 31 hits, 24 blocked shots, nine PIM and a minus-4 rating, and he could be in line for a larger role if Tanev misses time. |

Gilbert notched an assist and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars. - Gilbert earned his second helper of the year, snapping a 10-game point drought that also see him sit out eight contests as a healthy scratch. The 27-year-old could be in line for a short-term bump in playing time after the Flames dealt Nikita Zadorov to the Canucks prior to Thursday's game. Gilbert has added 11 shots on net, 25 hits, 17 blocked shots, nine PIM and a minus-2 rating over 14 appearances. In the long run, Ilya Solovyov or Jeremie Poirier (arm) could bump players like Gilbert and Jordan Oesterle out of the lineup. |
None |
| Nov. 25, 2023 |
Gilbert has played in the Flames' last three games after sitting out eight straight contests as a healthy scratch. - When Jordan Oesterle was waived and Rasmus Andersson was reinstarted from his suspension, Gilbert lost his spot to Nick DeSimone. Over his last three games, Gilbert has three shots on net, seven hits, four blocked shots and five PIM, but he's also taken a minus-2 rating. The 27-year-old is unlikely to see more than a third-pairing role, and with just one assist through 12 outings, he doesn't generate enough offense for much fantasy consideration. |
None |
| Oct. 20, 2023 |
Gilbert recorded an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Sabres. - Gilbert, a Buffalo native, used his physicality to win a puck battle before passing to Matthew Coronato, who set up Blake Coleman's third-period tally. The 26-year-old Gilbert has played in three of the Flames' four games, putting him ahead of Jordan Oesterle on the depth chart. Gilbert has added one shot on goal, five hits and a plus-1 rating in a limited third-pairing role. |
None |
| Sept. 24, 2023 |
Gilbert (undisclosed) is "okay" after leaving Sunday's preseason game against the Canucks, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports. - Head coach Ryan Huska said that Gilbert won't play Monday against the Kraken and could miss a few days but he seemingly avoided any significant damage.

None |
| March 21, 2023 |
Gilbert hasn't played since the March 3 trade deadline. - Gilbert was surpassed by Troy Stecher on the depth chart in the deal that sent Connor Mackey and Brett Ritchie to Arizona. Despite the Flames' uneven performance over the last three weeks, Gilbert hasn't gotten a chance to play. He has four points, 41 hits, 27 PIM and 20 blocked shots through 18 contests and wouldn't see much more than a third-pairing assignment if he was able to get back in the lineup. |
None |
| Feb. 20, 2023 |
Gilbert logged an assist and five PIM in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Flyers. - Gilbert fought Nick Seeler after the Flyers' defenseman doled out a heavy hit early in the game.

Gilbert has a career-best four points, 25 PIM, 23 hits, 12 blocked shots, eight shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 13 appearances this season. |
None |

The goal -- his first this season (10 games) -- stood as the winner. It was a game to remember for Gilbert, who had close to 100 family and friends in the arena to honor his first NHL game in his hometown. Overall, he skated 11:15 and had one shot, one hit and one block. Gilbert's only other goal came with Chicago in 2019-20. |

Gilbert was called up from AHL Calgary on Thursday. - Gilbert has only one point in eight games this season and has just one NHL goal in 33 career contests.

| July 13, 2022 |
Gilbert signed a two-year, one-way contract with the Flames on Wednesday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports. - The fact that Gilbert was able to land a one-way deal comes as a bit of a surprise, as the 25-year-old defender spent the entirety of the 2021-22 season in the minors, picking up 23 points through 52 appearances with AHL Colorado. The Flames are pretty shorthanded at defense, so Gilbert could earn at least a semi-regular NHL role in 2022-23. |
