I just call it like I see it. He was borderline a few years ago, and he isn't becoming a better player as he approaches 30. I'm pulling for him, but his chances of playing much longer in the NHL are a little grim.

People are also forgetting that he ended up on Chicago, because the Flames bought him out. He was only making 2.2 million, if you're buying a player out for 2.2 million and 1 year left on the contract, you don't really think they're worth league minimum.
