Wotherspoon is the better prospect because he has top 4 upside and he's a likely NHLer. Cundari has proven more but is also older. His upside isn't nearly as high IMO.
I find it hard to believe anybody who's watched a fair amount of both players would consider Cundari the better prospect.

I watched him play. WJC and live. He's only an average to below average skater. This may cause him some struggle when he first hits pro. I like his defensive hickey sense though. He seems to read the play in the D zone well. But I'm no scout.
