If the Flames see value in retaining a few million dollars, Wideman is tradeable. My gut says unless the Flames get a 1st round pick in return (ie, thinking Wideman the player + 2.5million is worth a 1st) they'd rather cheap out and have Wideman take minutes from someone even if that someone could be better. Only if Wideman is not better than anyone else would they consider burying him.
