Stajan is the type of guy you sign in order to make sure you have a roster with at least some NHL experience on it. Unfortunately this is what it is for the Flames right now, you rebuild around guys that really aren't part of the long term solution but are a semi-capable warm body for the interim until the team starts turning the corner.
