You may be right. We'll see!

The 3-4 years would be time to evaluate Talbot, Ortio, and Gilles, and then decide how to proceed. It gives the Flames more flexibility and options than only having Ortio and Gilles signed after next season, and exploring the trade or FA market for another goalie at that time.
