If the rumors are true that multiple teams are interested in him, isn't it more likely he is going to sign with a team that will give him more AHL time.

Yeah I see where you're coming from. You're right, there's certainly congestion.
I'd argue that quality of congestion is more important to a player than quantity. If I'm Gus Young, I would rather compete against guys like Engelland and Wotherspoon at a training camp than those 7-8th defenseman in the Flyers organization (as an example).
Also, I see Cundari, Ramage, and Alcolaste as the most likely to head to ECHL now that the Flames have changed their AHL policy from winning to development. We also forgot Roy as a guy slotted for Andironack
