If you feel a Saint may pray better than yourself (in having more faith)... I am not sure on this. If God would not hear you, then the Saint would probably not either. There is certainly no reference in the Bible to this happening.
It may be an idea, I suppose. As long as it remains a case of praying through the Saints, rather than to them directly.
