Some will extract narratives out of thin air to defend the Flames decisions.
The argument isnt being made that he's something that he hasn't proven to be yet, but just that he should be granted the opportunity to even try to prove it.
5 games were a) not enough and b) not even a failure if you care about output, and this team in particular should care a lot about that aspect given how its dried up for them over the last couple of seasons.

Yeah ... no
Kerins was productive in a short stint, but the stint also had him getting caved in at five on five.
I'm still rooting for the player, but there are certainly some tangible warning signs that he may be a good AHLer and nothing but.
Hope he gets a chance to prove otherwise.
But you don't need to extract narratives out of thin air to justify why a player that just passed through league wide waivers NEEDS to be recalled.
