There is no way that he will be waived 5 times. I doubt he is waived again (because he wouldn't clear). But for now, every penny that they save in the first couple weeks will help

There are always injuries, without a doubt.
I hope you're right and he isn't waived again. As it stands, I think Ryan is a lot closer to being the team's seventh-best forward than their 13th-best one. As the season progresses, the Flames will have more and more room to completely fit him under the cap. But I don't think they need to take the risk in waiving him again to extend his taxi squad eligibility. It's not necessary IMO.
I wonder when we might see Connor Mackey in the lineup for the first time?
