I have no doubt in my mind Treliving is trying to trade him. From all the rumors they have been trying to trade him for a couple of seasons. Treliving has said he wants to re-sign Nakladal, they can't do that unless they get rid of Wideman. That said can't see them buying out 2 players this year. Maybe when the dust settles they can trade Wideman, but i think he ends up on opening day roster. Have to think his NMC makes it very hard for them to trade him. I doubt he would waive to go to a team that has no chance at playoffs ( Edmonton). It would mean moving now and then moving again come tradedeadline.
