[Report] Flames acquire Dennis Wideman and sign 26M/5 YR deal


Recommended Posts

Wideman is a soild player. The cap seems to go up every year and when you look at hammers contract even from a perspective of an unbiased fan you have to realize that widemans deal is soild. Cap since lockout:

2011-12: $64.3 million

2010-11: $59.4 million

2009-10: $56.8 million

2008-09: $56.7 million

2007-08: $50.3 million

2006-07: $44 million

The cap goes up on average around 4-5 million discounting one year. You cannot compare one years salary with the next. Basic economics as reveune an inflation increase so does salaries, you can only base it on this years cap and not previous contracts. Wideman is slightly over paid but not a whole lot. His salary should be around 3.75- 4.5 million.

We'll see if he can produce like he did in Boston and Washington on a.....team like Calgary, or if this is yet another one of their duuuhhhhhmmbbbb cap hits.... JBo 6.7, Cammalleri 6, Wideman 5.2, Stajan 3.5...

p.s. Hammer puts up 37 pts while being a shutdown guy...not a powerplay, join the rush player...
