What we don't know is the agreement details between the Thunder and Devils regarding the goalie spot, there may be a certain number of guaranteed games.
Yeah, I have no idea what kind of details there are in an agreement like that, but you have to think that there is no way the Flames would handcuff themselves by giving away too many starts, especially when they were pretty sure they'd have their own full time prospect ELC goalie in the ECHL this year.

They literally have two goalies under contract for every net they can utilize.

It's not like last year where they didn't have a goalie of their own to send to the ECHL. Last year the Thunder had 10 goalies dress for them and not one of them had an NHL SPC from Calgary.
