Ramo looks good, I think it should be Ramo and Ortio to start the year. Hiller is less likely to be taken on waivers, and if we retain 50% he may have some trade value yet.
Too good for the AHL, but just odd man out for the Flames.
I honestly don't think you'll ever see Smid on the ice again. Brodie is out at least for the first week of the season, so somebody will be on the roster. Hence, the discussion as to whom.
Yeah, it's a good discussion. I'm just saying that a player like Morrison should get lots of AHL time when Brodie gets back. As for Smid, I put a ? beside his name because his future is cloudy.
Myself I'd probably favour Wilson for our 6th defenceman and I still like Wotherspoon.
2 Things:
1) Kulak is incredible. He's only 21 and looks like a polished NHLer. Yes it's just preseason but eh.
2) Yes it's just preseason, but eh, I should take Bollig out of my sig.

Remember his playoff's too changed my tune when it comes to Bollig, for sure.

I think Morrison could use some time in the AHL simply to learn the system under Huska. He hasn't been in the organization long.
Both Andersson and Kylington have impressed, but they both need to play in a lower league for now, probably for the entire season.
Nakladal looked like a good option until he got hurt, but he might still be there opening night.
Wilson looks like a decent veteran at the same level of a Schlemko or Diaz, but not much more. Could be a good option as a stop gap until the kids are ready.
Sieloff had one good game in the last 2+ years. Give him time on the farm to get back on track no matter what he does at camp.
Kulak made big strides last year, as did Culkin. That's why I think both deserve a shot until Brodie is healthy. Since Culkin is hurt long term, it's Kulak's job to lose as far as I'm concerned.

I like Kenny Morrison. Big frame, great outlet pass and a canon of a shot. Maybe he needs to improve defensively but I think he could become a 3rd pairing player for sure.
