Do these all have out-clauses for when the AHL resumes? I don't mind them getting some hockey in during the fall, but *when* the NHL begins again, Marody seems like a reasonable bet for a callup.

Yes - all these postings have out-clauses. The Oilers are just trying to find places for everyone to play until there is a season again. I'd think as much as the NHL season is in danger, the AHL may be even more so so it's good to get players on the ice SOMEWHERE.

Agreed. And honestly, I don't even mind if some of the guys without much of a shot at NHL minutes spent the year in Europe vs. the AHL/CHL (which I agree, both may be in jeopardy of not playing).

Some of these postings have been to B-level teams too...I think the Oilers first concern has just been getting them on the ice at all. Could be a pretty fun time for some of these young guys. Get to go over and live in Europe for a few months while playing pro hockey? There's worse fates.
