Flames call up Adam Werner [G] from Heat

[Reggie Dunlop]

According to AHL Transactions page

Black Ace?

Crowded crease on the farm? Shortridge and Chechelev are in Stockton as well.

OK I guess. But he doesn't seem to have a future for the team

[Reggie Dunlop]

Heat don't play again until the second round... so some time next week.

Maybe Werner as a practice goalie?

I agree, it's sorta odd.

[SeanCharles]

He will be a practice goalie to give Markstrom a break from some of the more tedious drills, from a goalie perspective, I’m sure.

Better than playing an EBUG if it comes to that.

The Heat will live and die with Wolf, so I guess it doesn't really matter who his backup is.

Cheech-whats his name is a better backup anyway

[DoubleK]

I'm cool with this. Give Werner a taste of what the playoffs are like while Wolf is in Stockton getting decent minutes.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Shortridge and Chechelev both got a game in at the end of the season. Remains to be seen who backs up Wolf.

None of these things matter, since the Heat aren't playing this round. By the time they do play, I expect Werner will be back in Stockton.
