Nolan may be on the down side of his career but I've been a slight fan of him and I've always enjoyed watching him play. He plays physical and he's a good, girtty veteran that fits the style of play for the Flames. I figured they would pick him up because he's a "Mike Keenan type of player". Tough, hard-nosed, mean, etc. I would definitely pick him up for cheap, and IMO this was a good move by Calgary. $2 million seems about right, and if he wants more it was smart to include incentives because you never know how Nolan will play, especially at his age right now.
