He isn't injured according to anything I've read and even during his interview he said he wasn't injured. I don't think he's being punished at all either.
The Flames beat writer was suggesting that both Culkin and Ramage's scratches are nothing more then Huska not wanting to tinker with a winning lineup. However it was speculation and no one seems to have asked that question directly (this is where I miss PMM. He'd ask that and get the answer flat out)
We do have more D then spots for them so it's a plausible answer. Perhaps with the back to back games Friday and Saturday, we might see Yonkman sat and Culkin put in.
