News: The Stars have dealt Adam Pardy and Steve Ott to Buffalo for Derek Roy, the team's official site reports.
Analysis:Adam Pardy isn't much of an offensive threat, having notched just three assists with the Stars this past season in 36 games, but he'll at least add some size (he's 6-4, 220 pounds) and depth to the Sabres' blue line.
News: The Stars recalled Adam Pardy from a two-game conditioning assignment in the AHL, Dallas Stars' website reports.

News:Adam Pardy (ribs) practiced Wednesday and could make his Dallas debut Thursday, the Dallas Morning News reports.

Analysis:Adam Pardy will miss action once again, the good news is that it seems unrelated to the shoulder injury that sidelined him for much of the 2010-11 season. Don't expect the blueliner to be out too long but he is highly unlikely for Dallas' home opener against Chicago this Friday.
News:Adam Pardy (shoulder) has had an active start this preseason with a goal and four penalty minutes in two games.
Analysis: It's unclear as to exactly how Adam Pardy will fit in with the Stars but he has a chance to put up his usual modest numbers on the third pair if he can stay healthy. In any matter, it looks like he's past his shoulder issues from last season.
News: Pardy (shoulder) has reportedly signed a two-year contract in Dallas for $2 million per season, according to the Calgary Herald.
Analysis: Not exactly a replacement for the pending loss of Brad Richards, but this is a team with serious cash issues, so bit parts will probably be the norm this offseason. Pardy will fill a depth role on the blue line in Dallas after missing most of the 2010-11 season with a major shoulder/upper body issues.
News: Pardy will be sidelined indefinitely with an upper-body injury, the Sports Network reports.

Analysis: Assuming he can put his shoulder issue to rest, Pardy would be a sensible replacement for Steve Staios, a low-end rearguard recently sent to the injured reserve with an upper-body injury. Pardy is air-tight on defense, but his fantasy prospects are limited at this time.

News: Pardy (shoulder) accompanied the Flames on a two-game road trip beginning Friday against Minnesota, but the defenseman is considered doubtful at least until this Sunday against Chicago, the Calgary Herald reports.
Analysis: Pardy played in the first two games of the season, but has been out ever since. He's more of a shutdown defenseman than anything else, so even when he does return his presence won't be felt in the world of fantasy hockey.
Flames' Pardy Close to Returning From Shoulder Injury
News: Pardy (shoulder) is close to returning for the Flames, the Calgary Herald reports.
Analysis: According to the report, Pardy's eventual return could result in at least one player moving down to Abbotsford (AHL), or the team could be thinking about a possible trade. When healthy, Pardy is a steady source of hits, blocks and penalty minutes, leaving him without much fantasy appeal.
News: Pardy (shoulder) did not play in Tuesday's win over the Predators.
Analysis: He's been limited to just two games thus far with the injury, leaving minutes for Steve Staios and Cory Sarich. Once Pardy returns, the Flames will have a decision to make in their third blue-line pairing.

News: Flames D Adam Pardy had no points and a minus-1 rating on Monday against the Blues. He has no points in eight straight games and just two assists in his last 22 appearances.
Analysis: Pardy has only 18 points in 105 games since entering the NHL last season. He is not on the ice because of his offense. He mostly plays because he is a decent defensive presence. That just doesn't help Fantasy owners a lot.
News:The Sports Xchange reports Flames D Adam Pardy returned to the lineup on Sunday against the Canucks after missing last game and four of six outings due to a lingering sprained wrist. Pardy's inclusion meant Staffan Kronwall was again a healthy scratch.
Analysis: Pardy has really impressed Calgary management with his strong defensive play over the last two seasons. He will chip in the occasional goal or assist, but Pardy is primarily on the ice for defense. He has marginal Fantasy appeal when healthy.
News: Calgary D Adam Pardy returned to the lineup on Thursday against the Kings after missing three games with a wrist injury. He had no points in 17:03 of ice time and finished at even. Pardy has no points in five games since scoring on Nov. 30.

At 8:09 of the third period the Flames scored again when Pardy blasted a shot from the top of the slot that beat Pekka Rinne high to his left side. It was his second goal and first since opening night against the Canucks.
Analysis: It's funny that Pardy scored in the first game of the season and the last game in November. He has been a healthy scratch at times for Calgary, but has been a regular in November. Calgary really loves his play on defense. Pardy might get double-digit points, but he won't produce enough to matter in Fantasy.
News: Flames D Adam Pardy tallied two assists and finished at plus-3 during Tuesday's game against the Canadiens. He has three points (one goal) and a plus-5 rating in three games.
Analysis: Pardy really impressed the Flames with his hard-nosed play as a rookie in 2008-09. Even with the coaching change, Calgary made it a priority to re-sign Pardy in the offseason and keep him on their blue line. Pardy is playing well above what was expected, but we aren't sure if he can keep up this pace. Continue to view him as a low-end Fantasy flier until further notice.
News:Rene Bourque, Brandon Prust and defensemen Mark Giordano and Adam Pardy scored for the Flames, and defenseman Dion Phaneuf added an empty-netter to seal the win during Thursday's 5-3 victory against the Canucks.

Analysis: Pardy really impressed the Flames with his hard-nosed play as a rookie in 2008-09. Even with the coaching change, Calgary made it a priority to re-sign Pardy in the offseason and keep him on their blue line. While he will be a regular, we just aren't sure that Pardy will fill the stat sheet on a nightly basis. He has low-end Fantasy appeal.
News: The Flames re-signed defenseman Adam Pardy Wednesday. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
Analysis: Aside from landing Jay Bouwmeester, one of the Flames top priorities this offseason was to re-sign Pardy after he made great strides as a rookie in 2008-09. He totaled one goal and 10 points in 60 games, but he continually improved as the season went on and Calgary believes he has a bright future ahead. Still, Pardy has low-end Fantasy appeal Draft Day because his offensive numbers aren't quite up to par.
News: Flames D Jim Vandermeer (15 PIM), D Adam Pardy (14 PIM) and C Michael Cammalleri (12 PIM) racked up the penalty minutes in Thursday's loss to the Blue Jackets.
Analysis: Vandermeer and Pardy are used to picking up this many penalty minutes over a week's span, but not in one game. They both remain low-end Fantasy options in leagues that reward bad behavior. Meanwhile, Cammalleri, who has 75 points on the season, remains a must-start in all formats, and things like PIM are just a bonus for his Fantasy owners.
News:The Sports Xchange reports Flames D Jim Vandermeer was the lone healthy scratch Wednesday against the Blue Jackets after playing the last few games mainly as a forward. It's indicative of how much D Adam Pardy has improved.
Analysis: Pardy has one goal and three assists in his last seven games. He played a season-high 24:44 against Columbus. Calgary really loves the way he plays defense, and as long as he stays strong in that area, Pardy will remain in the lineup. However, the rookie defenseman is still a Fantasy project in the works and a low-end reserve.
News: Flames D Adam Pardy has a three-game point streak after he assisted in Tuesday's win over the Blues.
Analysis: Pardy is a former sixth-round pick that has been bouncing around the minors the last few seasons. He is a lower-pairing defenseman for Calgary and has limited offensive upside. He remains nothing more than a Fantasy reserve.

Analysis: The 6-4, 220-pound Pardy had five goals and 13 assists in 65 games last season for Quad City (AHL). He also had 67 penalty minutes. He was recalled twice by Calgary last season, but never saw any action. Pardy has no Fantasy value heading into 2008-09.
