If not for the expansion draft eligibility this would be a really solid move for the Flames. I liked Lazar in his draft year, but he's struggled a lot this year. Is it a case of a change of scenery being what's needed to get him on track to a serviceable NHL career. Or is he a fading flower?
It's all about expectations. Don't expect him to be a top 6 player...compare him to what you could have realistically got out of this years second round pick.
