He would be a Stajan replacement at basically the same $ and have clearer role and expectations.... Maybe Backlund gets moved and the Flames hang onto Stajan.

Agree with this take. We need a guy that can play anywhere in the lineup as a 2-4th line center.
Dave Bolland would fit this bill as well, although I would guess the Leafs will re-sign him.
