He's on the team. Rumor is he wanted a guaranteed spot in the lineup rather than in the minors. Edmonton told him he would most likely be in the AHL so they were told they were out.
Very similar to Versteeg last year (Edmonton never guaranteed him a spot). Had they have, they would have signed him but in both cases they didn't so both players signed with the Flames.
