Default Which Heat Players Make the Big Club?

I am assuming the season actually gets played. Which AHL players do you see making the Flames roster opening day regardless of AHL injuries.

Called Up Opening Day - Regardless of Injuries
Brodie: No question. He was a full time Flame to finish the season and has improved his play over the off season
Baertschi: He was already penciled in to the roster. After his play with the Heat I can't see him not making it.
Horak: I personally thought he would start the season with the Heat. But how can the Flames site merit and not bring him up based on his ridiculous play? I don't think they can.
McCarthy: It was already heavily implied by Hartley that he wanted McCarthy on the Flames roster. He has been very good with the Heat. And the Flames need more size.

Routine Guys - Only for Injury Support:
Aliu: Quick easy call-up
Bouma: See above (when healthy)
Byron: Depends on his play
Nemisz: See above

Occasional Call Ups - Rewards or Excessive Injuries:
Reinhart: I think he will get a few games to help his development. Not more.
Street: I wouldn't be surprised to see him get a couple of games.
Bancks: I think he gets rewarded with a game or two if injuries hit
Walter: Another guy who might get rewarded with a game or two
Piskula: Desperation call-up
Breen: Desperation call-up
Kolanos: Desperation
