I would presume this would count as an 'emergency' call-up and not against the 4 remaining.

Troy Ward receiving the news:



excited to see what Wotherspoon can do at the NHL level. Apparently he's made huge strides lately.

I have met Wotherspoon's dad a couple times, very proud of his sons. First thing he does on a Heat game night if he is travelling is log into AHL live to watch the game.

I hope he has Centre Ice too!

Should be considered an emergency recall as Wideman's injury puts the Flames at 5 dmen prior to Wotherspoon being called up

From the CBA:

Quote:
(m) Emergency Recall.
(i) A Player on Loan to a club of any league affiliated with the League may
be Recalled from such Loan under emergency conditions at any time for
the duration of the emergency only following which he must be returned
promptly to the club from which he was Recalled.

(ii) Emergency conditions shall be established when the playing strength of
the Loaning Club, by reason of incapacitating injury or illness or by
League suspension to its Players is reduced below the level of two (2)
goalkeepers, six (6) defensemen and twelve (12) forwards.
Proof of the
existence of the emergency conditions including the incapacity shall be
furnished to the Commissioner of the League upon request made by him.

From the CBA:
He has three call ups to use as well does Burke not?

Seeing as All the kids were called up before the deadline yesterday.

I think Burke mentioned the call ups to fill roster spots due to trades counted (hanowski and MacDonald)
