DeAngelo is a bit of a D-bag isn't he?
Other than that he kind of fits, the Flames need another good young RHD, and preferably one who can generate offense from the back end because that was sorely lacking. Problem is he'd give the Flames their 4th Dman they need to protect.
They could also use a good young goalie like Georgiev to platoon with Rittich, but again, if they both play well you might lose one to expansion.
I mean, you need to improve the team where it's needed, but you do have to weigh the expansion draft into your decisions. You don't want to leave massive holes in the line up, but you also don't want to watch a key piece you traded assets for this off season, walk away for diddly squat next off season.
I'm going to be glad when there is no more expansion.
