If he's been getting help and he wants to turn his life around, a player like Richie would unquestionably be of service to this team. The Flames have given quite a few players who were perceived as washed up (Huselius, Nolan, Bourque) a chance to succeed and it's worked. For the player that Richards was (and if he's been committed to getting help), I'd do a one year contract without even thinking twice.
