The Flames are in pretty good shape going into next season in regards to bad contracts.
Brouwer - Is the worst of the bad contracts with his sub-par performance this season and having 3 more seasons left.
Stajan - Plays well as the 4th line center but getting paid like 2nd/3rd line center. Only one more year on his deal so not a big deal.
Bouma - Got paid after a career season, but with only 1 year left on a $2.2 million deal is nothing to get worked up about. I'm expecting Bouma to be better next season.
I don't see any other bad deals. Of course new bad deals could be signed this off-season. Need to stay away from signing Versteeg to a multi-year deal. Sam Bennett doesn't deserve a big raise yet.
