If we're going to sign someone else, I think Sonny Milano would be a good fit. I'm baffled that he didn't get a QO from Anaheim. I wonder if there is something to his game that pushed Anaheim away from re-signing him. But even then, I imagine Sutter could work his magic and get the most out of Milano.

Otherwise, I think it's time for the Flames to promote some of their prospects to fill up the botttom 6. I think Ruzicka and Pelletier are NHL-ready and deserve regular spots in the line-up (provided they earn those spots!). Maybe even Phillips will surprise in training camp and give the Flames some much needed speed and energy.
I think the knock on him is that he is too one-dimensional and not productive enough overall to make up for it.
