Seriously?? Comparing the two are like comparing apples and oranges. Wideman improves the Flames power play last season. He is what the Flames were lacking an offensive defenseman who are pretty good with breakout passes. As for his defensive game, i did not see much flaw on it last season. There are a lot of Clarkson out in the NHL that can be had for much cheaper price. I wouldn't pay that much money on a borderline 2nd line 3rd line player.
