If that is so, then he sort of got the shaft

While I'm no expert on the CBA, aren't we consistently reminded that 1 way and 2 way deals mean nothing in regards to waiver eligibility? They only impact what the player is paid if sent down and if the deal impacts cap hit if they are sent down or not.
So I don't think that shafted him at all. And even if it did impact waiver eligibility, he's the one that would have wanted a 1 way deal, so it's on him to live up to the contract he negotiated.
