This is what I am thinking will happen, it will help evens things out a bit, having one contract not count against the cap helps out teams a lot, the only thing I don't like is that rich teams, get off the hook.
If there is a compliance buyout, I really hope Flames go to the Blue Jackets, say give us the 3rd overall pick and we will take David Clarkson's contract and use their compliance buyout on David Clarkson and just buyout Dennis Wideman.
Dennis Wideman buy cap hit is not too bad.

To Columbus:
6th pick
Mason Raymond
To Calgary:
3rd pick
Sergei Bobrovsky(the Blue Jackets retain $1 million, the Flames get Bobrovsky at $6.4 million cap hit) Flames get their starter
David Clarkson(Flames use their compliance buyout on him)
