I heard that one too but then looked at the dates and Jones was traded to San Jose on June 30th, and the Flames re-signed Ramo on July 1st, so the San Jose trade would have fallen through before we re-signed Ramo.
I have no doubt we were trying to shop Hiller but the order of events shows that it wasn't just San Jose backing out of a deal that left us with 3 goalies.
