Flames Recall Tyler Wotherspoon, Demote Kulak

The Calgary Flames made some adjustments this morning with the recalling of Tyler Wotherspoon from the Stockton Heat (AHL). With that of course, someone is going down to the AHL and it's Brett Kulak. Both defensemen are still relatively young, with some upside, and opportunities in their game but it's Wotherspoon's time to hopefully shine.

This is yet another opportunity for Wotherspoon to possibly find himself in the lineup and make a positive on-ice impact.

With Kulak heading down, there should be some worthwhile discussion about evaluating the growth and development of the Flames' former fourth-round pick in 2012.
