It would be deflating to be on the Addy Flames for 3 months where not 1 person is called up. At least now, anyone who was a bubble player has motivation to keep working their tail off and believe what the flames told them.

Uhh, yeah, no. The Flames are not going to risk severe penalties by cheating like that. More to the point, it is asinine to think that Jones and the NHLPA would go along with it. If Jones is on IR, it is because it is legitimate.
The rest of your babbling ignores last year. The guys in Addy already know spaces will open up as time and need permits.
