On the FAN today, Derek Wills was mentioning the Flames may only keep six defensemen allowing them to keep three extra forwards or two forwards and an additional goalie. Does anyone know what the rules are as far as keeping players around town who are not on the active roster? I believe there has been instances in the past where players were (virtually) sent down but never physically reported to the minor league team or, at least, did not stay down. Would it be possible for a player in this scenario to be added to the game roster if a roster player was injured during warm-up?
