I get your point, but how do you know that was even offered? Cammalleri has a big price tag that a lot of teams can't fit under their cap.
Honestly, if the "risk" of waiting was to lose out on a 3rd or 4th round pick, then fine I get it. Sure it would be better then nothing... but I get it. We'll see how this plays out, if Cammalleri is brought back and Hudler moved out for a 2015 1st (example)..... then there is a different dynamic here.
Also, remember for that deal to work, the Flames have to eat salary. Is a 4th round pick going to be worth that?
