Or if Wideman isn't moved you still have 7. Not sure if any other D are knocking on the door. Unless the Flames land Ekblad
My guess is that Wotherspoon starts next season in Abbotsford and becomes the first call-up in case of injury. The Flames are probably going to have to sign a couple of UFAs to get to the lower cap. One most likely a defenseman. If they trade Wideman somehow (which I doubt) it would probably mean a big contract coming back as well, possibly a defenseman. This would bump Wotherspoon to the #7 spot. I doubt they keep him up if he's the #7 guy.
