I have never been terribly impressed by my albeit limited viewings of him. With other talent chomping at the bit, he may have been surpassed on the managements list as well.

Hartley wasn't a fan. But Wotherspoon is more NHL ready than Kulak IMO. And he is more reliable.
I am expecting him to get a real shot with a new coach and have a breakout year.
But...
if he doesn't make some serious strides this year, the young guys will pass him by next year.
