			ugh please no. No more overpaying for bottom 6 forwards. After what his linemate Cizikas got in NY, I'm sure he looks for a big deal too.

			Matt Martin is like bigger Bouma that doesn't get injured. He's also a beast in the community and with charity work, so you know that goes a long ways with Flames upper management.

Yeah.
Move Bouma to 4th line C and roll with:
Martin - Bouma - Hathaway
That line would cause destruction and probably pot the odd goal too.

			I don't want him, at least not this season. Maybe once we jettison some of the expiring contracts next year but not now.

			I like the player, but he's going to get too much money for what he brings. Would prefer to avoid that.

				Martin would seem to be a fit in a lot of Eastern Conference spots, at  least ones that can fit $2.5-3 million per year under the cap.
			
		 
	 
	
 
would you really want the Flames to pay another 4th liner that kind of money?!

			I would be all for this if they have a trade for Bouma lined up. If not, it would make me think that it is an organizational philosophy to die by a thousand cuts.

He won't. He's actually a decent hockey player.

			Just Treliving kicking tires, people. If he won't pay Colborne $3m, he probably wouldn't shell it out for a tough guy.
