The only way I see a player of Kippers age having a god awefull season get any kind of return in a trade is if it was intirely conditional, ie the Flames take on the risk, say a sliding scale from 3rd round to first depending on his performance, playoff success and resigning.
Without this no GM worth his title would touch him, so short of Feaster mistakenly trading Kipper back to the Flames (and even then he'd probably balls up the paperwork and the league would nix it) I don't see anything happening.
