Jooris will probably move over there but having another option would be a good plan.
Klimchuk goes back. I checked with someone in the know of the CHL-AHL agreement and they didn't reduce the games needed to call it a season like they were fighting for in the 2012 agreement (and I thought they won, but I guess I wasn't informed well). Klimchuk shows as 2015-16 eligibility in the AHL.

Believe you are forgetting Austin Caroll who could potentially play in the AHL this season if the Flames sign him.
