Flames need an offensively capable top 4 right hand shooting Dman, and that's exactly what DeAngelo is. The guy was on pace for over 60 points last season, and he's 24 years old an an RFA so his contract is likely to lock him through most of his prime years.
Acquisition cost would be the big issue here, plus he's not great defensively and the previously mentioned character issues. Probably looking at $5.5 million AAV as well.
