His salary makes him untradeable. And at some point when the prospects are ready for the NHL, he’s going to be a roadblock. It will be fascinating to see what the Flames do. Give him harder assignments? Tell him to stay home?

I disagree that he's going to be a roadblock. That will only be the case if Flames mismanage the cap badly during this "rebuild".
