Ya,
I think it is a good back up plan to have another body that has NHL experience. I would like to see Wotherspoon to get in before Potter. But I have a feeling this won't happen, Potter will likely get in to the game tonight.
It would be great to see Wotherspoon get in and maybe steal a spot.
So for tonight we are looking at this sort of setup?
Russell - Brodie
Wideman - Diaz
Potter/Wotherspoon - Engelland
Maybe we see a trade today with a team that is in close proximity of the Flames right now so they can get into the game tonight.
Should be an interesting day.
