so the players travel an extra 20,000 miles over the season so that calgary can maybe save 1,000 miles on a callup? not to mention 50% of your callups are going to occur when you are on the road. look at the warren peters 1 game callup to new york midseason. how would the team being all the way out on teh west coast have benefited then? 50% of the year, the ahl team will be on the road and just as far away as they are know. there's also a significant part of the year that calgary is in the midwest or east coast.
