Not necessarily, after the trade deadline there is no limit on number of players on the roster.  However, they cannot go over the salary cap.  So assuming they would call up a player to replace Kuzy they would not have to place him on IR unless it would put them over the salary cap.  However, it does not sound like they are going to call up a player.  They have two extra forwards as it is.  Either Boyd or Stephenson will be the 4th center.

   Beagle will likely still be the 4th line center. I'm guessing Eller would be bumped to 2nd line and Stephenson 3rd line. They might just put Stephens in Kuzys spot. When Backstrom missed a game earlier this year Stephenson took this spot.
