You can't honestly think the Flames are going to delete from the roster (especially someone like Andersson) if they are in the typical not quite out of it 7-10 in the west range at the deadline? Ownership would never ok that if it potentially kills a playoff berth. They'd rather lose him for next to nothing than miss the playoffs. We just went through all the "this team deserves a shot" talk at the last deadline, and have heard it before many times.
If he's not moved between now and game #40 or so, I don't see it happening at all. The only thing that changes that is whether or not the team is actually in the post season race. There's not much reason to believe they won't be though.
