My theory...
They want to be able to bench forwards that need it
they have finally realized Chris Thorburn is a terrible hockey player.
Peluso will remain on injury for some time still.
=
recall Cormier to sub in-out with who needs it.
Banish thorburn to the firey pits of hell.

NHL should allow peluso to be like a lineman in the NFL with a cast on his hand so he can punch people in the face with a club!

Hopefully Cormier proves capable of filling Burmistrov's role going forward.
I really like Cormier; the kid has a great attitude and was next in line for a spot on the depth chart last off-season. He also plays a heavy game when fully engaged.

Pressure from the pressbox. Internal competition. If he can win faceoffs ( which he can ) he may replace a C that does as well but doesn't score either.

Does Cormier ever play at RW? Thorburn seems like the logical guy he would replace, but my understanding was that Cormier didn't play on the right side.
Anyway, I figured it was time Cormier got called up. Sounds like he's been one of the few IceCaps giving a consistent effort this year.

I dont get the thor hate
is he a great or even good hockey player? not by a long shot
But, he did his job by fighting orr last night and set the tone for the win
This is kind of odd of a call up, did someone get hurt maybe? or as others have said, maybe it is to bench people that need a kick in the ass.
I am looking at you Jokinen

Thorburn seems like a great guy, well liked and respected in the room, as a hockey player he just isn't very good, as the teams enforcer he will be a Jet until Peluso returns and not a second more.

I recall an interview with Cormier from last season; he essentially said he was disappointed in himself because he'd assumed he would make the Jets right out of the first training camp, that perhaps his battle level suffered in camp as a result, and that he wasn't going to make the same mistake a second time. All summer long during the past off-season the Jets listed him as a roster player on the depth chart... then came the lockout and then he didn't get a sniff to come to camp. Yet apparently in St. John's he has maintained a great attitude and has busted his ass every day.
This kid has exactly what they seek right now; a great attitude, zero sense of entitlement, plays a heavy game, and he really wants to be here. I hope he sticks, frankly.

He answers the bell for this team and usually against NHL heavy weights and pays the price. Kudos for that. Noel pointed out that he felt Thorburn doing just that last night made a difference.

Yeah just seen it on youtube too. Thanks for the link for future though.
I've hung around Orr a couple times, he just looks like an average guy, wouldn't think in a million years he was a fighter. But my one buddy who didn't know who he was, and was also a fighter, said the first thing he noticed were his massive hands/fists.
I find it amazing some of you want Thorburn gone so badly just hours after the type of game we had yesterday. And with Peluso out. Was yesterday's 5-2 win so distasteful that we'd rather have an incredibly soft and team and try to win with our powerplay?

How far we done fell
Yep. As per Bob McKenzie he is out with a suspected broken hand.

That explains Cormier being recalled.
