Interesting because I see it differently. I think they have enough pure offensive talent but lack really quality two way players. I don't think Ryan is a top line player but he's the type of guy I think they need. You need guys up and down the line up who can play two way hockey. On most contending teams even the top offensive guys play complete games.
The Flames right now have too many guys that are only good at half the game.
