I heard that Sven was getting jealous about Breen's call up time. Sven didn't see how Breen had earned his call ups and how he hadn't earned his spot with the Flames, so to keep Sven happy they called Smith up instead. Figured Sven wouldn't compare himself to Smith as much given he's not a rookie, but word is it might not have made a difference.
Apparently Flames are looking to make sure they sign Gaudreau and send hi to the minors to prove to Sven that other prospects that are highly touted also can be sent there......more to follow. Burke was quoted as saying, organizational priority #1 is to manage Sven's feelings.
