Ryan will play. But they are going to have him on the taxi squad every non-game day they can, in order to manage the cap.

I totally understand the financial aspect of it but the savings are relatively limited. Just $300k over a whole season, and that's assuming Ryan will be waived five times. That's playing awfully risky chess if you ask me.
I also just don't trust the Flames to make the right coaching move in this scenario.
