I get your guys point about the cap floor. But there has to be a better way to make the cap floor.
The ultimate goal should be to have no bad contracts. The last thing I want to see the Flames do is take on more bad contracts just to make the floor.
D Jones is a slight upgrade on Comeau. But triple the price for three more seasons. Get rid of him.
The only thing Wideman has going for him is his shot. 5 million a year for Andy Delmore 2.0. Look at the difference in the Flames GAA since he went down. Get rid of him.
If the Flames are in cap floor trouble this off season how about give Wideman and Jones' money to Iginla. Jarome Iginla for one year at 9 million with a handshake agreement that he will be traded to a contender at the deadline assuming that the Flames are out of the playoff picture.
9 mill for Jarome sounds crazy. But really, If you are going to watch a Flames game, who would you rather see at 9 mill per. Jones and Wideman. Or Jarome Iginla. I know what player I'd rather watch.
