All this talk about Khudobin is really showing g what an absolute mess this goaltending situation is.

Add another goalie who can't cut it with another team? Picking him up is simply a throwing mud at the wall strategy.

That is not how you build a winner. Simply waiting to see what sticks after you throw that much crap at it.

The Flames need a long term plan. Grabbing waiver goalies is not the solution.
Ortio is in Stockton. However, gathering up and trying under-used and goalies who might blossom until one works is actually how a lot of teams get good goalies. It's how the Flames finally landed a Kipper after years of trying to replace Vernon (including through the worst way - using a first round pick). Hasek was third on Chicago's depth chart when he was traded to the Sabres. Dubnyk was an Oiler cast-off.
