the handling of irving this offseason has me severly questioning what exactly is the philosophy of our AHL affiliate.
how can i guy who basically didn't make the heat even as a backup, played very few games, somehow manage to become the big club's backup.
Other teams used the lockout as a means to get their young guys top mins in the AHL so they got a headstart when the NHL season resumed. The flames decided against this, knowing they didn't really have any other decent backup goaltending options.
Just a franchise fail in my opinion.
