I don't. He got a raw deal from Hartley/the former GM. He had more wins then any Flames goalie when he got sent down, and had a particularly poor game vs Detroit before getting sent down. Both goalies now have had multiple games that were worse than Joey's games, but Berra is from Switzerland, so a kinship with the coach...and Ramo has actually played in the NHL before, you have to have one of those on the roster.
It's shuffling chairs on the titanic at this point, but now that the GM who brought these two "undiscovered gems" from outside the NHL to allow a smooth transition after Kipper decided it wasn't worth it anymore, is mercifully gone, bringing back Joey and maybe he gets a shot with another NHL team as a result doesn't really have a downside.
It'd be more than surprising if both of these goalies are full time with the big team next year.
