If any of Monahan, Backlund or Bennett get hurt than he would be obvious, but I have a feeling that he would aslo get the call if any of the top 5 wingers get hurt (I say 5 because right now there seems to be one guy that goes 3rd line to 4th line to out of the lineup currently)

I agree, except "need" could be necessitated by a lack of quality on the current team or poor results. For example, lets say the Flames lose today, and then lose another two or three...
I think Bennett has been ok, certainly no reason to give up on him. On the other hand Versteeg and Ferland have clearly been below par and can be improved on. If their performance continues to be unimpressive, it has a similar impact to an injury and I believe management will make a move to Jankowski and move Bennett to the wing.
