Been a really good bottom 6 forward for us and if the 4th line keeps playing well then they will be huge from a depth perspective come playoff time.

I kind of disagree. I think it took him a few months to fit in and become comfortable as early in the season he was invisible at times as many of us that didn't see him play in Carolina were scratching our heads how he managed to score 15 goals and 38 points in Carolina as he was showing nothing in offensive ability. There's no doubt he's found his role on his team and is now comfortable but it wasn't an instant fit which is not surprising as it can take a full season for some players to acclimate to a new team. He's definitely been one of the best Flames down the stretch which bodes well going forward.
