I understand if the league come down on Wideman with the minimum amount of suspension for hitting an official, which is 10 games. Sucks that it happens but i am sure he and others will learn from that mistake.

I heard that if Wideman gets suspended, Flames are not allowed to call up a defenseman to replace him. It means they are stuck with Smid and Engelland as the 3rd unit.
who the hell told you that...they can call up whoever they want, might need to send someone the other way though. That being said Smid and Engelland have both been decent this season
