With 15 points through 49 games with the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/kings\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles Kings<\/a>, Shore showed he could play a bottom six role. After being acquired from the Kings in the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/p\/phanedi01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dion Phaneuf<\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/2018\/02\/13\/ottawa-senators-trade-dion-phaneuf-to\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">trade<\/a>, Shore played in only six games for the Senators registering one assist in that time, however.<\/p>\n<p>The 16 points so far this season are only one off his career high set last season with the Kings. With him already set a career mark in assists (12) Shore is on pace for a career year. If he is able to score three more goals, he will set a career high in that category as well.<\/p>\n<p>His advanced stats bode well for the Flames. So far this season shore sits at a 52.82% corsi for rating at even strength. His relative corsi sits at more than decent 3.44 as well. If he can continue to play as he had all year the flames have definitely helped themselves going forward.<\/p>\n<p>Calgary gives up very little in the trade. The seventh rounder will be for the 2019 draft.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Moving Forward<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Shore looks to slot into a third or fourth line role, similar to his spot with the Kings and Senators this year.
