Yeah Mike Smith is old and sucky, definitely a weak spot.
I dunooooo, their numbers aren't greaaaat...BCExpat wrote: ↑Mon Jul 02, 2018 2:14 pm The flames have three decent goalie prospects Gillies and Ritich (one of which will be the backup in the upcoming season) and Parsons who is pegged to be the future goalie for the flames but he's a few years away. So, Smith is a stop gap goalie, but the Flames need at least one more good season out of him, until Ritich or Gillies are ready to take over the number one spot. They have both shown signs that they can play, but neither is ready to be the No. 1 goalie yet.
That's about how I feel. If you look at the Flames lineup compared to the Capitals, they have a looooong way to go.Strangelove wrote: ↑Mon Jul 02, 2018 3:41 pm The Flames can't afford to sit around and wait on those not-blue-chip goalies IMO.
They did well in unloading problem child Hamilton... a good trade for them.
Still, they seem like a bubble team to me for the foreseeable future.
Not being an asshole, just an honest opinion from an outsider.
Hey, if everything goes perfect one of those seasons they could get to the playoffs and win a couple of rounds.

Can I just say how nice it is to have a fan of another team, an especially hated rival at that, come here for reasoned, amicable discussion! Thanks for that.
With his 44 points in 82 games?
