I don't agree on signing him, but someone will give him a look in a training camp, and he earned it.

Sure - it was just a broad example that this tournament produces unlikely heroes and to use one of 50 contracts on a player just because he had a big game or two would be incredibly shortsighted.
A lot of goalies actually thrive on huge workload and play better when facing 40+ shots in a game they know they have zero chance of winning. There's a real danger in putting huge stock in those performances.
One thing to give him a look in training camp. But the OP said he doesn't care about anything other than the Flames signing Godla to a contract which is crazy.
