I really hope Sieloff takes a big step next year to, he hasn't been talked about much at all this year. I'm still hopeful he can be an NHL player.
I think he will, he essentially missed a year and a half with pretty much no competitive games. Since he was with the team in Abbotsford (even though he wasn't playing) it is hard for us to see him as the first year pro he is this year and he is being handled as such. In fact the entire defense corps has been rotating time off because they have had 8-9 defensemen on the roster at all times.
I will preface the folling by saying that the ADK Flames are very quiet about injuries and the 2 people that cover the team for the media rarely comment on injuries.
Wotherspoon and Yonkman have the only constants from opening night until now, both have played a high 44 games.
Culkin's strong play the last few months turned him into a regular until he suffered his injury, he played 37 games and is the only rookie defenseman to see really regular playing time.
Cundari & Ramage have each played 32; I am unsure if either have missed time with injury.
Stevenson (AHL contract) and Sieloff have played 27 & 26 games respectively. Sieloff missed some time with minor injuries and is rotated in and out of the lineup. Stevenson is also rotated in and out of the line-up, I am unsure if there were any injuries for him. Both are AHL rookies.
Potter has only played 25 games, he has missed a bunch due to recalls to the big club and likely would be a regular if it wasn't for that. He may have missed a short period of time with an injury too.
Acolatse has only played 20 games due to injuries and being rotated in and out of the lineup.
Kulak has been in the ECHL most of the season after struggling to start the year. He now has 8 games under his belt this year and played exceptionally well in Colorado.
