This came up in another thread, regarding age to play in the AHL etc. A player turning 20 before Dec 31 is eligible to play in the AHL. Since he turned 20 in July, as per the CHL agreement with the NHL he can play in the AHL or ECHL. He just needs to be signed to a AHL contract as I don't know if the flames want to sign him to an ELC.
