Calgary Flames starting goaltender Jacob Markstrom was taken off the injury reserve list and returned to the active roster on Sunday.

He had been sidelined since breaking a finger in practice on Dec. 4.

In a corresponding move, the Flames returned goaltender Dustin Wolf and defenseman Ilya Solovyov to the Calgary Wranglers of the American Hockey League.

Before the injury, the 33-year-old Markstrom posted a 6-8-2 record with a 2.94 goals-against average and an .896 save percentage this season.

Wolf and Dan Vladar assumed the duties in goal during Markstrom's absence, and the Flames were 2-3-2 during the stretch.

Markstrom is 198-181-57 with 18 shutouts, a 2.73 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 14 seasons with the Florida Panthers, Vancouver Canucks and Flames.
