We're voting on a combination of the two, not just either one. It's up to you to weight it how you want.
Sure Breen is probably NHL ready and I'd like to see him make the Flames this season. But his upside is probably as a bottom pairing defenseman in the NHL whereas Wotherspoon is close to making the NHL (not quite as close as Breen) and has top 4 potential IMO.
Would you trade away Wotherspoon to land a Breen? If you answer no, then you should probably have Wotherspoon ahead of Breen in your list.
The list can almost be viewed as which prospects are most valuable to the Flames as assets.
