It's not about replacing Frolik.
It's about just being able to hang from a defensive perspective with Backlund and Tkachuk (he can) to allow Frolik to give us better balance on that third line.
Flames forward groups have been too heavily loaded up in the top 6 all season because they couldn't trust Brouwer or Hathaway on the 3M line.
Shore can handle that responsibility with tough match ups and hard zone starts. He did it in L.A at times.
