Yup.
Utilize him in offensive situations, get the most out of what he brings you. He would not be asked to be the savior here, but the Flames could benefit greatly from adding those 60-90 points to their roster for merely cap.
You look into that add every time.
I mean if you were to ask what would bridge the Flames to taking that next step, it's likely: upgrade/improvement at C, another bonafide top 6 player, young D taking a step, Rittich figuring out how to put together a full season of good hockey.
He definitely solves your top six hole, so why not plug that for free? (Which makes Mangiapane emerging the icing on the cake)
