Going to the game against the Kings on the 9th - hopefully he plays well enough to slot it.

My head is not 100% convinced that this is the right decision for the long-term.
My heart, on the other hand, is ready to see him tear Edmonton a new a-hole.

You could be right, 868904. I would imagine there was a desire to boost the Adi roster.
I would bet that Hartley was screaming to have him here. And that Treliving was hesitant.

Excellent. The kid is gonna fly around like his hair's on fire! I'll be shocked if he doesn't score tomorrow night.

This was basically calling him up for an AHL team anyways.

So basically Diaz injury = good fortune for Bennett
John Shannon @JSportsnet
Key discussion all day for Sam Bennett. Flames had no more recalls from AHL...only allowed 4 after trade deadline.
Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
CGY recalled Bennett to NHL club because Flames have used their 4 call-ups from AHL. If he'd been put in ADK, would've been locked there...
Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
...until ADK's season over. Putting him with NHL club gives them more flexibility.

Typically Hartley let's a new guy watch a game, although I suppose Bennett probably knows the system being around the team for most of the year..

Please Hartley, let me be wrong - play him tomorrow in Edmonton on HNIC!

I was told even after noon a decision hadn’t yet been made on Bennett. That’s how much of a debate was going on.

Just a wild guess but I bet Treliving wanted him in Adirondack, and Burke wanted him in Calgary. Burke eventually convinced him to change his mind, after the Diaz injury and Wotherspoon callup...

Treliving for sure has my vote as to who was yearning to air on the cautious side.
But the offense outside of the Monahan line has become anemic lately with little secondary help.
I do not believe though that this will hamper development for Bennett. I'll stand here until I am blue in the face repeating that he had no business being anywhere but the NHL from the get go and the re-habilitation of his shoulder was the only reason he was sent down.

It's happening. A power play unit of Monahan, Johnny, Hudler, Bennett and Wideman will be scary good.
