2023 Fantasy Outlook
If the Flames' good health persists into 2023-24, Gilbert is unlikely to be in the lineup much. He was able to fill in for 23 games last season, picking up four points, 55 hits, 26 blocked shots and 27 PIM while seeing limited usage in a third-pairing role. It's tough to say Gilbert has the talent to stick at the NHL level, but his one-way contract and the Flames' lack of defensive prospects ready to make the jump could at least keep him on the roster. He can be useful for physical production in extremely deep formats when he plays, but he's a non-factor in most fantasy pools. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a two-year, one-way contract with the Flames in July of 2022.

Gilbert hasn't played in the Flames' last 10 games.
ANALYSIS
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.

Exploring market
DCalgary Flames
November 15, 2023
Calgary is gauging the trade market for Gilbert, according to The Fourth Period.
ANALYSIS
Gilbert has an assist, 17 hits and 10 blocks in nine contests with the Flames this season, though he's served as a healthy scratch for Calgary's last five contests. Gilbert is in the final season of a two-year, $1.525 million contract, and the Flames are off to a 5-8-2 start, so it's not surprising that Calgary would be weighing the possibility of trading him and other players on expiring contracts. Gilbert isn't likely to garner much of a return, but there might be contending teams out there interested in him as a physical depth defenseman.
See All NHL Rumors
2020 Fantasy Outlook
Gilbert has collected 22 games of NHL experience over the last two years, but he has just three points to show for it. The 24-year-old has added 80 hits and 34 blocked shots over that same span. He joined the Avalanche as part of the Brandon Saad trade with Chicago, but Gilbert is far from a lock to see much playing time in 2020-21. He'll benefit from Colorado's relative lack of NHL-capable, left-shot defenders, which almost guarantees Gilbert will be with the big club on Opening Night. That said, he's more of a defense-first player, which gives him next to no fantasy appeal, even in deeper formats.
