The Flames could have put a claim on him literally one second after he hit the waiver wire and it wouldn't have mattered.

Thank you friend. Its pretty obvious now that I was not fully aware of the intricacies of the NHL waiver system. I bow to your superior knowledge. <no sarcasm intended>... I really appreciate your explanation.... thank you again.
By the way, does anybody actually know if the Flames actually put a claim in for Shultz or is that information that the NHL does not release?
