Stempniak notched 14 goals and 14 assists last season for the Flames for 28 points, a three-year low. He has struggled with consistency throughout the career, but for the price he provides some decent depth. Stempniak played in 61 games last season due to a high ankle sprain.
Stempniak has played with four different NHL franchises since joining the league in 2005.
