Well with him going back it gives Flames options. He could be a good trade piece to help bring in forward help that both have a contract, and are still relatively young (not over peak years).
If a offer comes along that can help the Flames now and down the road, could be smart move to trade him. Got other defensive prospects that it makes him expendable. Normally I would prefer to hold on to him, and he may end up signing next year or year after with Flames still, but Flames need to be more aggressive since the window to take advantage of the core pieces on the roster is now and closing.
