Sieloff is different from all of those guys, he brings an element that none of them do and that is truculence.
Some on this board see zero need for any physicality but hockey is still a physical game. I think you would like to have at least one physical type defensive defenceman in your rotation.
Guys like Anderson/Kylington/Culkin/Kulak/Morrison/Hickey will be fighting each other for the 3,4, and 5 spot.
Guys like Sieloff, Kanzig, Ollas Mattson, and Bruce will be fighting for the 6 and 7 spot.
Ideally, if there's a guy who can fill both roles, that would be perfect, but I don't think the Flames have anyone like that in their system, maybe Rafikov is the closest.
