Dude Calgary had him under contract for ONE year...the Flames gave up a first to trade him and his ONE YEAR contract. Montreal then signed him as a UFA as ANY other team could have and then traded him for a first at this past deadline. He wouldn't have been Flames property this past deadline these are seperate transactions. IF Montreal traded him at the 23 deadline you would be accurate.
