Wideman Scenarios - Perhaps a useful Islanders Trade?

A trade between the Islanders and Flames might be mutually beneficial

Dennis Wideman seems to be public enemy number one for most Flames fans. While he was useful in the 2014-2015 season putting up 56 points in 80 games, those numbers fell off the face of the earth in 2015-2016 as he posted 19 points in 51 games and battled both injuries and a suspension for obliterating a referee. He carries a massive 5.25 million cap hit for one more year and the Flames carry a dearth of defensemen that play on the right side that are simply better than he is.
