@foreverflamesfan, quoting not working but I've heard it a few times that it would look bad on the Flames to trade someone after signing them. I'm really not sure where that thought has come from but I really think his contract specifically handcuffs the team badly. The benefits of getting rid of that contract far outweighs any negative temporary perception there is. Given he has a NTC, it would have to be a situation that benefits him, which is still a longshot, but I still have some hope his style resonates with half the teams in the league enough to create a market for him. I wouldn't expect a high return but with albatross contracts it's addition by subtraction.
