I believe an emergency callup is one that allows you to go over the cap temporarily because you don't have enough skaters to ice a full roster for a game due to minor injuries. As a result these players have to fufill a certain AAV requirement which is very close to the league minamum which is why you often see lower prospects as emergency recalls because the better prospects AAV would be too high.
That's how I think it worked the last time I looked at the emergency recall rules sometime last year.
Exactly this.
