IMHO, the most reasonable explanation is that NHL teams don't necessarily cut players in order of talent or potential.
There are many other factors and I strongly suspect that there are players still in camp that weren't better than players cut today. I'm guessing that some guys were kept to get a closer look at the player in different situations to assess what kind of asset they have.
The Flames have a pretty good read on Cundari from his time with the club last season, but already know he's lower on the depth chart for now and belongs in Abbotsford.
