I imagine it might have something to do with Jankowski. Once he and Gilmour signs, the Flames will have extra players and they won't be able to use the emergency call up the way they've been using it. They probably hoped to have Janko and Gilmour sign the AHL deals but it looks like they won't settle unless they get the NHL deals; therefore, the Flames are forced to "see" they guys they want now before they lose their emergency call up options.
