?? I think you're using the "face ripped off" metaphor pretty loosely. Most people wanted Cernak to stay, including me. My position was one that made no logical sense: "I think we'll keep him up, but I don't know how." Well, the how turned out to be a conditioning stint for Koekkoek.
But I mean, I remember people believing he would be sent down because there seemed no way to keep him up. I don't remember anybody's face getting ripped off.
It's more than that, we moved Joseph to IR the day Stralman was ready to go and Miller was injured a couple days before Joseph's return, we didn't make any roster moves because we didn't have to. I don't doubt they wanted get more of a look at Cernak and the "fortunate" timing of the injuries allowed for that so unless this guy had a crystal ball seeing these injuries beforehand Cernak was still mostly likely going down when Stralman came back.
