Take away Potter from the list because he's injured, it still looks like there are 25 players left (including Bennett). As far as I can see they still don't have room to keep Bennett here for a tryout.... and even if they don't they still have one player too many on the roster come Wednesday.

What am I missing?

Edit: I just saw the solution... Send Granlund back to the AHL and Bennet back to his OHL team. Now the Flames would be down to 23 players.

That's my view as well, so unless we get a surprise demotion today it means Bennett goes back to junior as soon as healthy, which would be the right decision IMO
