I've been talking about Chaisson as a Flame for about 8 months now. I would encourage people to look past his time with Ottawa, and concentrate on why he was a major piece in the Spezza trade instead. He was keeping up with the top 2 lines in Dallas, while hitting everything in sight, and not being a defensive liability.

I remember this guy being a game changer. Look for a bump in point production for whomever his linemates end up being. He's a second assist guy, and that's ok.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if he gets a look at the top line at camp.
