Treliving is unlikely to allow these 3 to go through waivers:
Ferland - waiver eligible and likely gets claimed
Jooris - waiver eligible and likely gets claimed
Shore - waiver eligible and likely gets claimed

leaves 2 roster spots for
Raymond
Bollig
Byron
or anyone else on the farm that can make the team (i.e. Poirier, Arnold, etc).

going to have to make some moves if the Flames sign Byron.
Or they sign him and be prepared to risk him on waivers should he not make the team. If they sign him and waive him, at least he had a shot to make the team, if they let him walk right away, they lose the chance to see if he pushes his way back into the lineup
