That says they are confident he can. Otherwise they would go to plan B.

Reasonable assumptions, but the only thing that makes me question them is Sven saying he felt confused about him being cut. One would think that the Flames would communicate to him why he was cut and what their plans are...but I'm not sure that was the case considering Sven's reaction.
It will be interesting to see what happens in the next couple months, both on the teams side and Svens performance.
