If the Flames would have kept Kulak, we'd be all up in arms about how Kylington or Valimaki lost a whole year of development and how the Flames have no room in the organization for them. It's a circular argument of disingenuity. Sometimes, hard choices need to be made, choices that sometimes leave good players behind, but there are only so many spots on the roster for defensemen.

Keeping six NHL-calibre left-handed defensemen is not good asset management in any world.
