Montreal Canadiens: Can Paul Byron Play a Top Six Role?

The Montreal Canadiens made an incredible steal from the Calgary Flames when they plucked Paul Byron off the waiver wire at the beginning of the 2015-16 season. The Flames evidently needed that roster spot for future two-goal-scorer Brandon Bollig and to hang on to the three headed goaltending monster of Jonas Hiller, Karri Ramo and Joni Ortio.

The only people terrified by that monster would have been fans of the Calgary Flames. Those fans were not too pleased when they saw Byron put on waivers and Bollig penciled into the opening night lineup either.
