Nice! JAD would've been okay, but this fills a much bigger need.

meh, don't see any upside with Greer. There were certainly other players on waivers that I would have liked them to take a flyer on.

This is a very Flames thing to do. There was actually a couple players that could have been claimed that have an outside chance of being a legit contributor. Schwindt is as good or better than Greer. This isn’t a great move imo.

SCOUTING REPORT
Has great size and strength. Displays both a quality level of skating and a nasty disposition at lower levels. Can rile up opponents too, making him a focal point for teams that line up against him (which helps his own teammates). Is not a natural scorer and is reduced to a bottom-six winger role in the National Hockey League.

Long Range Potential: Big depth forward.

Flames pro scouts always find gems so I’m sure this will … never mind.

This is probably to address the lack of toughness

I'm willing to see it play out.

DA would've been my pick, but let's see.
