I actually think Wilson could have gotten a deal somewhere, but Calgary was a poor fit. Guys have struggled mastering Hartley's system quickly(Engelland last year, Diaz for a while, Hamilton this year so far), his lack of footspeed made him a bad partner for Engelland or Wideman, he's a primarily left side D which made him a bad partner for Russell, and our overflowing prospect depth gave him a ton of competition.
Still, Flames gave him a longer chance than most PTOs. Maybe he can convert that to a deal with somebody else.
