Yes. He has to either make the Canucks out of camp next year, or they'll risk losing him on waivers. Their only other option will be to trade him for whatever they can get like the Leafs did with Colborne.
This is another reason that Flames fans shouldn't be concerned about trading him. A second-rounder in 2015 is likely better than what they'd be offered in October by a team trying to take advantage of a desperate GM.
