Default Flames recall Sven Baertschi, Wolf, and Wotherspoon

#Flames recall Sven Baertschi and David Wolf, and defenceman Tyler Wotherspoon from Adirondack

Quote:
By the call-ups, LW Curtis Glencross (lower body) and D Ladislav Smid (upper) both still out. No G Joni Ortio, though, which is interesting.

Sven is back!

Guess that means Ortio will stay in the A.

Well isn't that exciting. Hope to see Wotherspoon earn some minutes and Wolf tryout as Bollig's replacement. I suppose it'll be nice to see where Baertchi's head is at also.

You're sending the Wolf? That's all you had to say!

Interesting to see what Hartley is going to do with Sven. I really hope that he doesn't saddle him on the 3rd or 4th line duty as they could have brought up another guy to fill those roles.

I wonder if Wolf can take over Bollig's spot. He's perfectly capable of doing so. Maybe this will make Raymond/Smid/Bollig expendable sooner that what we thought, obviously depending on how all 3 rookies play.

Wotherspoon is definitely an upgrade to Smid, Diaz and Engelland, so our 5/6 will look way better.

Sounds like Glencross is injured for longer than we assumed. Well, this might be a good look at next year's Flames sans Bennett/Poirier/Ortio/Granlund.

I don't mind Sven on the 3rd line at this point the season playing beside Backlund and Colborne or even on the 4th with Stajan and Byron.

...It's nothing like when he was plugged between any of Bollig, Byron and Setoguchi and expected to produce something.

Nice! I was hoping to see Sven again soon. And I'm also intrigued to see what The Wolf brings at an NHL level.

Good for Sven, he must have been thrilled to find out!

I'm excited to see the Wolf in action.

Really happy to see Wolf recalled given his recent play. Pretty impressive to see 7 goals and 9 points in 8 January games.

Baertschi however seems to have cooled off since Arnold went down, so a little surprised that he made the jump.

Wow now this is awesome news! Can't wait to see what Wolf can bring to this team given 7-12 mins a game. Hopefully he can make an impact.
Also good for Sven, he worked his tail off this year. He could have easily faded into the background this year given the way our other prospects are playing. He battled and it has been acknowleged

I am a little worries it might be a showcase type of thing...hope I am wrong and it is just a reward for good play.

Perhaps a team is interested in Baertchi and wants to see where his NHL game is at?
