This makes me think a deal is probably close with another team, but the Kings would have to eat part of the salary, give up another asset (1st rounder), or take on a bad contract in order to get it done. So they are offering him for free, but I highly doubt anyone would claim him. I see deal getting done a couple of days after the waiver period.
My guess is that the Flames would be offering Stajan for Richards + 1st round draft pick.
