I'm still hoping they can off-load him this summer. Unlike many I think he still has some value to the right team, especially if the Flames retain salary on him. Time will tell.
Hopefully next year the Flames aren't in a position to be sellers at the deadline, and I don't want Wideman taking minutes away from D-men like Wotherspoon, Jokipakka and Nakladal (if he re-signs).
Of course, I'm also hoping the Flames pull the trigger on bringing another stud top 4 d-man (Hamonic I'm looking at you) to solidify the top 4 as they start trending towards contender status.
