I think he'll be on the team by the back-end of the season once people are moved, at the moment theres really only a few moves the Flames can make and none of them are particularly beneficial for either the players or the team.

As the season wears on people will be moved, be it by waiver or trade and other players will come in. I believe that Jooris and Baertschi are the first two in line.

So maybe we can calm down about the earned, never given bit?

They may also have Jooris ahead of both those guys, but not ahead of the guys dressing (and we all know Grats is not really a "depth chart" kind of consideration on RW).

This.
