Even if he is reinstated immediately, he is probably as un-trade able a player as there is. Raise your hand for a team going into a playoff run who wants a player who not only attacked a ref, but sent non-remorseful tweets after the fact?
That leaves the non-playoff teams, who will want him for this and next year? No way I see it. Especially with his under performance this year.
Flames best to hope this is all forgotten next year, and Wideman lights it up early in the season. Then dump him and move on. My guess is he will continue to stink up the joint until his is benched for most of next year and his contract expires. Flames should seriously consider a buyout actually or bury the guy, but we'll see.
