Waaay back I think they did release Rico Fata to play when he wasn't really being used much in the NHL.
If Parehk isn't playing much and is in the NHL, I do not think the Flames would stop him from playing. But if like Tkachuck or Monahan he's a regular in the lineup...he will stay with the NHL club.

That’s more what I was saying. A player known for his offense may also start slow and then lose some confidence. 2 week high stakes tournament might help him reset. But I agree, if he looks comfortable/effective and he’s a regular in the roster, no use sending him
