The only way I see the Flames buying Wideman out is if Feaster is not the GM come summer. Even then will owners allow it?

Mehh, he is obviously a defensive liability and not a good contract, but he contributes to a more effective powerplay and his contract expires when this team should start to be getting competitive again.
