I think Lecavalier makes a lot of sense for the Flames if they can get him on a short term deal. 2 years at $4-$5M per.
If Cammi isn't dealt prior to the draft, Lecavalier will certainly be helpful in upping his value for the deadline.
With the core being ripped apart, leadership is something the Flames desperately need, Lecavalier provides this.
With our centre depth being our main issue, having an experienced vet of his caliber is a vital asset in the youth development, especially if the Flames draft a high end centre this year and next. I would hate to see top tier prospects attempt to develop at the NHL level under Stajan. I think this is why we haven't seen Backlund develop the way we had all hoped.
I say bring on Vinny!!
