The way last season played out was very unfortunate for Versteeg. Obviously, being injured for much of the year doesn't help. But beyond that, I think he is a victim of the fact that the team sucked - especially the bottom 6 - and needed changes.
I suspect that, if the Flames had had a successful season, he would be back this year. It's too bad, from his perspective, but it is a tough business and it can be cold at times. That's why you have to appreciate the time you get - and it sounds, from the poster above, like he did.
All the best to him. And thanks for "#### you, Elliott"
