If the Flames aren't going to use him and since he has a one year deal and might bolt back, they should look at seeing if any teams are interested and flip him.
Bet you could easily get a 4th or 5th round pick for him from a team fighting for division or a playoff spot. Low risk and you get a guy capable of putting up some points and maybe improving on that. Maybe Winnipeg, Ottawa, Toronto. Detroit in the west.
Just random thoughts.
