I think if this team had run support, and a pretty good 65 game starter, that he is a very serviceable career backup.

We seem to have one of the two, and I don't think we expect to compete beyond 6-8th in the conference without the other.

So would the Flames take him on a year to year backup contract? Probably yet.

I think the real question is, is he ready to settle for a career backup roll, and the his 2x$2M contract was probably the peak of his career? Maybe not, I think he probably signs with a team that promises a chance at 25+ games, and may or may not follow through.
