Flames waive Devin Setoguchi

The Devin Setoguchi experiment is over in Calgary.

The Flames placed the one-time 30-goal scorer on waivers Wednesday, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie

Setoguchi is on a one-year contract worth $750,000, and none of his salary will remain on the Flames' books in the likely event he clears waivers and is reassigned to Calgary's AHL affiliate, the Adirondack Flames.

The 27-year-old forward appeared in 12 games with Calgary this season, managing zero points and a team-worst minus-7 rating. 

The move appeared inevitable considering Setoguchi failed to gain traction on a club that's battled through injuries to forwards Mikael Backlund, Mason Raymond, David Jones and Joe Colborne in the early going.
