I doubt Wideman is going to get you a better player than a top 15 goalie in the NHL and a legitimate starter. His contract and complete lack of speed or a defensive game aren't going to attract many suitors.
I guess he could demand a trade but guys rarely do that and more often than not re-sign with their teams as FA's, especially if the team wants to keep them.
He's been replaced by Berra for 8 games. I hope we use a longer sample size than that to evaluate players or their replacements.
