On the current roster, Brouwer seems like the best fit. I think his style is pretty much the same as Backlund and Frolik and they would be an effective unit. The only downside is Frolik shifts to the left side. If the Flames are looking to take a little more risk and look down the line, they could reach to the farm and bring up Mangipange to play on the left side. They could also consider bringing up Foo or Klimchuk and see what they have there as well. The other option is to find someone in trade if they are really being picky. I don't think it really matters, as Backlund and Frolik are the natural pair you are trying to find a complimentary piece for, and those two drive their line and will improve whoever is on it with them.
