Second of all, the only teams that would be interested in Glencross would be contending teams, which means you are probably going to get picks back, which is really not what the Flames need at this point in their re-build, nevermind trying to get a piece for a playoff push. Thirdly, as has been mentioned, Glencross is probably not going to waive his nmc willingly. For him to even entertain it there would have to be some very compelling reason, which I can't even come up with.
All those things considered, it is very unlikely. CP better get used to the idea of seeing Glencross in the flaming C at least until the end of the year, which is a good thing. Dude can play and he can play tough minutes, which is exactly what you want going into a playoff push. He doesn't have to score goals the way he used to, he can contribute in plenty of other ways.

Mentioned already but
- nobody even realized he was missing when he was out.
- ive explained a great reason for him to waive his nmc as it is all about $$$ and on his current role, he isnt being showcased for the big money he claimed to be after
- I will gladly take a first or solid prospect from a top playoff team. It is year 2 of the rebuild and a late first or prospect sure beats nothing at years end.
