Schlemko was put on waivers twice last year (so I am working on the assumption that he could clear).
If I was Treliving, I would offer Schlemko a position as the veteran leader in Stockton, with the understanding that, come injuries, the Flames would call him up.
Make it clear that guys like Nakladal, Wotherspoon and Morrison also need NHL time to be seen and tested. And that Stockton needs a leader, but that the NHL door would not be closed in the slightest.
