No one knows when he’s playing, no one’s asking questions cause he’s asked for space. If he comes back tomorrow he’s missed a whole training camp and a month of the season, they may get him into a game before Christmas, unlikely at this rate.
He’s on a deal that walks him directly to UFA with no bought UFA years which certainly hinders his value in a trade, the market for him is a little tough cause no rebuilding teams will move a piece the Flames want and no competitive teams are going to pony enough draft capital to make it worth it for Calgary.
He’s had one good season, he’s not worth nearly as much as fans on here think, if he was he wouldn’t be a piece in every armchair GM post. at this rate best case scenario is he comes back and plays well for Calgary but who knows when that is.
