It's likely the only way he waives to very temporarily come to Calgary is if the Flames retain on him and flip him right away to somewhere like TB at $3m a year (maybe NJ retains too to get 4.5m off their books).
TB and NJ could both be interested in a deal like this and both could offer up something decent to the Flames, NJ for clearing the cap and TB for Palat who was pretty good there and probably has a number of buddies. Gonna be tough to make a deal with Tampa work with their salary cap issues, but it could be part of a bigger deal.
