Problems with Wideman
- In the length of his contract with the Flames he had one good year. He has been terrible this year
- He has term left
- The Flames haven't shown much appetite to retain salary
- He's WAY older than Hamonic
I think Wideman has negative value right now. Next year you may be able to move him with no term left. Right now? I don't believe any team wants to take a chance on him.
If the Isles are trading Hamonic it just isn't about replacing him in terms of quality of player - they will probably want someone of similar age.
I don't see much of a fit for the Flames.
