It seems that whenever the Calgary Flames call up a player from the American Hockey League, that player either gets parked in the press box for a while or gets to dress but barely plays in the actual game.
So it may be tremendously surprising for you to learn that Tyler Wotherspoon, in his first call-up to the NHL of this season, played a regular shift with another recent call-up on Calgary's third pairing. The Flames won 5-2 against the Vancouver Canucks.
How did Wotherspoon do? In short? Pretty well given the circumstances.
THE NUMBERS
Wotherspoon had 22 shifts for 15:52 overall, all at even-strength.
