No matter how you feel about Wideman. The reality is that there is a strong possibility that he will be needed if the Flames have any type of playoff run. Injuries and suspensions will happen. The Flames are about to play a bunch of high playoff type games in a tight time frame. As bad as it has been with Dennis I think he is a pretty good depth guy to have available. I remember him playing huge minutes in 2015 down the stretch and into the playoffs. Its one thing to have him in your top four but maybe he is value is higher as a 7th d man.
