Look at Matt Stajan. That contract was miserable at a certain stage, but this season, I love the role he's taken on. He's a plus player, he's having one of the better offensive outputs of his calgary career, he's able to match up with any line if needed.
Brouwer has something more to offer this club, we haven't seen the whole package yet. Last thing I'll say is there is no one else in the Flames system I would trust to soak up those 15 minutes of ice time a night.

I'm with you. I think there are intangibles there and yes he may not be worth the 4.5 mil now but I agree I'm hoping he will make it worth it eventually.
Plus I think any player putting up big minutes through a 10 game winning streak is part of the equation, so I wouldn't change a thing.
