I'm not discounting his play, I think he's been great since the start of last season. But we just have backlog of young centers stepping up and Stajan is the oldest/most talented guy being pushed out. I don't mind waiting until the deadline, but the Flames are in a position to make some good moves that can secure a good future and I don't want them to miss that, or to hinder the development of young players to "showcase" vets. Stajan has been around long enough that teams know what they get in him. And his play last year and the beginning of this year has already given his stock a boost.
