There is no better time to maximize on the return than now . If what sec212 is saying is true, that owners willing to eat money/cap space on last year of deal , could really help on the return. Granted they have now waited to long and a bunch of the heavy hitters are probably done with trading.

Nope, I agree. He is worth moving. And really he can go play 2 years in Colorado or Carolina then sign his retirement contract with the Flames.
