Normally that wouldn't be an option because the player would have to go back to junior for another season. However Baertschi does have a birthdate that falls in the range that allows him to go the minors next year. Which is nice because it allows the Flames to put him in the minors, or play him for part of the year up in Calgary and demote him while still being able to recall him.
