Well if he was at least ok, I'm sure the team that finished 27th overall would sign him to help them out. It's not like he's deciding not to sign here, the flames didn't take him back. There are still better options than him not because it's a deep UFA pool but because he isn't as good as most others.

Good guy, bad hockey player. Sorry
