On the Jets would be a similar situation to when the Flames had Iginla. Whatever line Wheeler was on was the #1 line.
Logically Frolik was at very best playing the 2nd line.... and only then when Byfuglien was forced back to play defense otherwise Frolik was the 3rd line RW.
When Stafford joined the Jets the #1 line was Stafford Scheifele and Wheeler and they accounted for basically all the scoring for the last 25 games. Little and Perrault were out. Lowry was the #2 C with Frolik and Ladd on the Wings.
Frolik got as much ice time as he could handle as the Jets were having trouble icing a NHL line-up...They picked up Stempniak and Tlusty to have a 3rd line.
The Flames have a much stronger interchangeable 7-14 set of forwards... Frolik won't be getting as much default ice-time as he did with the Jets.
