The flames were more likely to be patient with the flaws in his game than a new team would have been, he found that out the hard way. I wish him well but I think he is going to have trouble establishing himself as a third pairing defensemen going forward. He has the task of finding a team that wants him and has the development staff to work with the flaws in his game at the same time. He is a reclaimation project at this point.
I do admire his resilience on not giving up on his dream and hope he can re-establish himself.
