[Rumour] Dreger: Flames haven't officially put Russell on the trade market yet

[DJones]

I think the Flames will offer him 3.8~

Wideman ($6M cash vs 5.25 cap) and Smid's ($4M cash vs. 3.5 cap) contracts are both back-loaded; not really sure on the rationale for that as it makes them much less attractive to move to half of the league. Annoying.
