Andrew Mangiapane will miss the first few days of training camp because of an injury sustained this offseason.
"He had a tweak during some summer skates," Flames general manager Brad Treliving said. "We anticipate it's going to be very short term. He's skating on his own right now with our medical staff, our skills and development people. He probably will rejoin the group in the next couple of days."
Mangiapane, a forward, had NHL career highs in goals (35), assists (20), points (55) and games played (82). A restricted free agent, he signed a three-year contract on Aug. 2.
Christopher Tanev, who sustained a dislocated shoulder in Game 6 of the Western Conference First Round against the Dallas Stars on May 13, is expected to be ready when the on-ice portion of camp begins Thursday.
The defenseman was originally expected to be sidelined 4-6 months after having surgery in June.
"We may probably not play him in preseason games initially, the first little bit of preseason games, but we anticipate he's going to be full-go here starting tomorrow," Treliving said.
Defenseman Oliver Kylington (personal) will miss the start of camp.
Brett Ritchie signed a one-year, $750,000 contract on Wednesday. The 29-year-old forward had four points (three goals, one assist) in 41 games with Calgary last season and has 72 points (42 goals, 30 assists) in 341 regular-season games with the Flames, Boston Bruins and Dallas Stars.
