So it depends what his priorities are, but Calgary might represent the best mix of available money to pay him, role on the team, and chance to play in the playoffs.
Perhaps the Flames could be a good fit without breaking the bank. Unless he just wants to cash in with a non-competitive team.

That number for Calgary is deceiving as it does not include cap hits for unsigned RFA’s, I.E. Tkachuk, Mangiapane and Kylington
In other words, we aren’t in a position to sign him without letting RFA’s walk.
