I dont believe they're walking away because of performance issues though...moreso this comes down to $$ with Nashville as it often does. Just to qualify him would cost them 3 million this season alone, and to get him done longer term would be a whole lot more and likely a NMC of sorts.
After adding a 5 million dollar a year guy on Saturday and looking at their pipeline of dmen coming up, this one simply comes down to picking their spots as to where to allocate their budget.
MDZ is a pretty good player and absolutely fits what the Flames are trying to do....but it comes down to what the scouts say and what $$ he is really seeking long tem.
