Culkin did not receive a qualifying offer from Calgary, the organization announced Monday.
ANALYSIS
Culkin split time this past season between the AHL and ECHL, including a 19-game, zero-point effort with the Stockton Heat. The unimpressive 2016-17 campaign was likely the deciding factor in the Flames' decision to part ways with their 2012 fifth-round pick.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2015
2014
Culkin had a scary moment in February when he was cut with a skate, which tore multiple wrist tendons. He missed the rest of the season, but is slowly making his way back to full health. He had 18 points in 37 games with AHL Adirondack last season, which is where he should spend all of his time in 2015-16 as well. He has a lot of talent, but it's tough to crack the Flames' blue line currently.
Culkin has 131 points over the last five seasons in the QMJHL and that earned him a three-year entry-level contract with Calgary. He should find his way to the AHL sometime in 2014-15, but the 20-year-old needs some time to mature in the minors before getting a look for the big league squad.
