Kiprusoff was hurt only 6 days ago, and clearly Hartley and Feaster didn't like what they saw Thursday/Saturday. This on top of the intention for Irving to play a lot anyway this year, which is mainly why he was here and didn't play a lot on the farm during the lockout.

Sunday a veteran goalie is available for only the cost of a contract space, and only official when Monday morning comes around. There is also a game today with one of the goalies having to play, and tiptoeing around that.

Sometimes you have to plug the holes as they come...given Kirpusoff's exceptional durability the past decade, can't fault the Flames for scrambling to try and shore up the situation when he goes down as opposed to having the polished "Contingency plan for Kiprusoff's early season injury" ready to be enacted.
