If this is true and i highly doubt it is, he needs to honour the contract.

If he really wants to stay home with his kids, which is fine by me, then he should reitre. Not sure why he would want to stay for the rest of the year anyway? Once the trades start happening Kipper could be facing 40 shots a game with a GAA of over 4. Not a nice way to finish your career.
Has this been confirmed by the Flames,Kipper, or his Agent?

The speculation surrounding his final year is absolutely puzzling.
