Emergency recall is simply because you don't have enough bodies to ice a full line-up.
I thought those were limited, or does that only count after the deadline ?

For some reason I thought there was a gain from doing this, with potential repercussions.

Basically I thought something sneaky was going on, but I guess I over thought it

So much for a bunch of them coming back after the bye-week...

I'm very curious to know if we'll get injury updates on some guys. It was revealed that Drouin and Armia would be out until the All-Star break. Now that is done with, we should get an update on their injuries. And of course, Monahan, as well as Edmundson.

Hopefully with them coming back from their bye-week later today, we'll get some info on the injuries.

Teams only have 4 standard recalls after the TDL. You can still make emergency recalls, though, which don't count as part of the 4.

Emergency recalls are only if you don't have enough bodies to ice a line-up, whether through injuries, illness or suspensions. There is nothing else to it. Nothing to do with cap or trying to circumvent the counter for games played and days. And they can't do emergency recalls after the TDL just so they don't waste their 4 standard recalls. It is only if they don't have enough bodies.

Just to clarify, a player who requires waivers has a 10-game/30-day counter for emergency recalls and a separate 10-game/30-day counter for standard recalls.

Belzile for instance, already played 5 games on an emergency recall before the All-Star break. So he can play another 4 games. If Canadiens intend to keep him up, they'd need to send him back to Laval and call him up on a standard recall, which would start another 10-game/30-day counter before requiring waivers.

If they don't intend to keep him, they have to send him down to Laval and possibly recall someone else on emergency basis.

What did Anthony Richard do to never be called up again?
didn't live up to his last name?

It's more, I think, coz Belzile and Ylonen earned the recall after their tenure the last games they played with the big team. I guess he next on the list but players will now start coming back from injury so the opportunity may slip.
depends how much we unload in TDL, but expect to see him back at some point
