Cap space is an asset and free agency is a chance to waste it. It's not a problem yet, but in 3 or 4 years it will be.
I would agree with the notion of short term deals. Nothing more than 2 years, ideally.
As far as trading Wideman, I would say that's a good plan. Given that cap space isn't currently a problem for the Flames but it is for everyone else, Wideman -1.5M would probably be an incredibly valuable asset.
