If he signs here, it won’t be to play fourth line center. His cap hit will likely be somewhere around $2 million and that would probably place him as a third line center behind Monahan and Backlund, jostling with Mark Jankowski for ice time.
There’s not much wrong with that concept, though. Jankowski’s still super young and having a more veteran player who’s a bit more established as a scorer to push him makes a lot of sense – Peters and Brad Treliving probably would like Jankowski to grow and earn his ice time, and a lack of bottom six competition is one of the big reasons the Flames missed the playoffs.
