icon57 Radulov - Yay or Nay?

Not sure if this is worthy of a poll, but if it were, I would make the choices:

1. Nope. Nope. Nope.

2. Only if it were for the league minimum.

2. Yes, on 1-year "show me" deal.

3. Yes, on a long-term deal.


I noticed some discussion about him in the trade rumours thread, but thought it might be an interesting discussion on it's own.

Personally, I would offer him a 1-year "show-me" deal. I didn't like the way we screwed over Nashville, but there is no denying he can play. Being a RW, he would likely have a huge opportunity to showcase himself on the Flames.

I say, do a one-year contract even if you have to overpay for the short-term. Best case scenario is that he is productive and the team has success with him. The worst case would be that he doesn't fit, but at least there would be nothing holding us down in the future. And then there is the possibility that he does well and the Flames have trade bait at the deadline.
