He's not that bad, probably not worth the $5 million cap hit though.
His contract is pretty buyout friendly. Buying him out would remove his entire cap hit next season, so they would get $5 million in space to play with. The following season, they would have a $2.5 million hit, but the cap is supposed to go up substantially by then anyway.
I could actually see them buying him out and then re-signing him to a lower cap hit like the Flames did with Stone before.
