I'm in favor of bringing Marleau to the Flames - even with a 3 year $7M/year contract. Having just speed is useless, but Marleau's proven season after season he can score. Just because he's quiet and not necessarily a hardnose guy, doesn't mean he can't be effective. I never considered him as a good choice, but the more and more I think of it I do think he'd be a great fit. I know the style with the Flames more recently has been to sell this notion of "truculence", but sometimes there's just no substitute for skill and scoring.
