I can see why they didn't qualify him, but he said he wanted to be in Calgary and that there
was a good chance he will remain a flame-even after he wasn't qualified. This leads me to believe the Flames chose to move on from
him regardless of the price tag.

Very poor decision IMO. How do you lose a 6'5 point producing 26 Y.o who is still improving every year for nothing? UGH!
Point producing?
Improving?

Just because the guy was great in the community, doesn't excuse the fact that he was an inconsistent tweener on the ice. Imo getting rid of him is exactly what the flames should be doing. No more passengers on this team.
