I am inclined to believe Cammalleri had little to no value to anyone else in the NHL.

I think that he had some value, but from the interviews it seemed like Burke was confident that he could re-sign Cammy if the right deal wasn't there. If Cammy's that close to signing a new contract with Calgary then it's safe to say he'll be valuable for the rebuild.

Obviously if he walks for nothing then it's a big loss on Burke, but he could very well re-sign and be traded at a busier trade deadline in a year or two.
