I guess the writing was on the wall since we had too many players and not enough roster spots...but woah, I definitely thought he had played his way onto the big team.

long break for the flames and he doesn't need to clear waivers.

Just gets him some playing time rather than having him sitting around

he'll be back after the all-star break. i'm surprised that Boyd didn't join him, though if Sutter told him to find a house in Calgary then that might not be fair

I don't think he'll be down for long, but I'm glad he'll be back for the eastern trip. I hope he does get in a game or two in QC though.

:EDIT:

Why would he be called back up though? It's not like there aren't two other forwards sitting out every game. It would be nice to have at least one extra forward down here.

Well if it was just for the allstars break, why didn't they send down Boyd as well?

Default Nystrom returned to Quad City (AHL)

As per HeraldHockey.com and Jean Lefebvre's blog.

He just wasn't the same after he ditched the beard. Give him four weeks and the beard will be back in no time... Nystrom being back in the NHL in four weeks, well, only time will tell.

I am guessing Nystrom has not played for almost a month, and it's pretty much just conditioning...
