Look at the Flames scoring leaders... it is the first line, 4-D men then Bouma, not really intimidating. Backlund/Bouma/Jones is a great third line but the Flames don't have another offensive threat after the top line. O Reilly will not only be a huge help offensively, but he is a two way player who while on the road can match up against opposing top line to give Monahan a bit of a break.
The Flames have cap space now. What happens when they need that cap space to re-sign Giordano, Gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett and whoever else?
