With Wotherspoon showing to be a pretty solid kid last year, out of camp I can see him making the team. Sieloff being a early to mid season call up who sticks.
Giordano, Brodie, Wideman, Wotherspoon, Smid, Sieloff and Russell is how I see our defence. I don't want to lose the mobility of Russell and the potential of Wotherspoon to play Engelland who I think Sieloff could be an upgrade to in pretty much every way.

I am as big of a Wotherspoon fan as anyone here and IMO he has maybe a 20% chance of making the team this year. He needs to play and Adirondack is where he can get 20+ minutes a night.
Sieloff didn't play hockey last year. He has less that a 1% chance of making the big club IMO.
The chance of Wotherspoon and Sieloff BOTH making it is as close to zero as you want to bother to get.
(this precludes a ton of injuries to starters in camp and them having to play as replacements, of course)
