Honestly, I don't know crap about Ramo nor do I think anybody else here knows crap about Ramo. And, I don't think most people here even knew who Kari Ramo was a year ago.
I do remember, however, a year ago and 2 years ago and 3 years ago, hearing that Irving is the Flames best prospect (better then Backlund, better then Brodie)... and, I actually remember watching Irving play a NHL game and thought it was the best performance by a goalie in a Calgary Flames uniform not named Kiprusoff.
So, I'm not ready to cast off Irving for a couple of minor leaguers and call them winners and Irving a loser who will never win anything, when the ladder guy is in the NHL. That would be flat out stupid, after seeing so many minor league rockstars go through the Flames system (Martin Broshu, Curtis McElhinney...)
