Conversely, Kulak and Sieloff were both born in 94, so that means they are not considered over-agers, and wouldn't be able to go to the AHL this year.

Is this correct?
yes, in order to be AHL eligible for the season, CHL prospects have to turn 20 before December 31. Therefore, Kulak and Sieloff have to go back to junior (unless they sign an ELC and stay with the Flames), but Culkin could play in Abbotsford. Similar to Sven last season.
