CRANBERRY, Pa. -- Radim Zohorna thought his buddy was joking with him when he got the phone call.
It was Monday afternoon, and Zohorna was on his way to the airport in Pittsburgh, where he would meet the rest of his teammates and fly to Detroit for that evening's preseason game.
Or so he thought.
His phone rang on the way there, and it was his friend letting him know that he saw a tweet saying the Flames had claimed Zohorna off waivers.
Zohorna looked at the clock and was a little suspicious.
