sounds like an interesting thing for fans and media to talk about, but I'm skeptical how much this will be used - it will be interesting to see if there are many owners willing to pay a player to play for someone else; also, are their GMs willing to eat cap space, especially with the cap going down next season
what salary would make Cammaleri's contract palatable? $3.5M? $4M? Is ownership willing to retain $2-3M in exchange for say a 2nd round pick? I doubt the Flames would. Maybe the top 3 or 4 revenue teams (Leafs, Rangers, Bruins, Hawks)
