Though I think the Flames are actually in decent shape with Gillies, Ortio and McDonald - but adding O'Connor would give them 4 guys that I think have some chance of developing into a starter. I make that assessment of O'Connor on the basis of exactly ZERO knowledge of him and having watched him play for a total of 0 seconds.

Aside from Calgary, I think Buffalo would be a good destination.
