Hunchak is a Calgarian who was selected in the eighth round by the Stampeders in the 2019 draft. In 50 career regular-season games for the Red and White over four seasons (2019, 2021-23) he has 45 catches for 606 yards. Hunchak also has three catches for 32 yards in four career playoff contests.

Henry is expected to undergo season-ending knee surgery after suffering a patellar tendon injury during Tuesday's practice.

"It's a heart-breaking situation after seeing Malik work so hard to come back from his Achilles tendon injury last year," said Stampeders general manager and head coach Dave Dickenson. "As an organization, we will do everything we can to support Malik. In the meantime, we have to continue in our preparations for the season and have everyone step up to help fill the void."
