I thought Khudobin looked very impressive in Boston and his first year in Carolina. Then he became inconsistent.
I think he is as inconsistent as Ramo and Hiller. However, a free waiver-wire pickup for a huge black hole on the Flames with at least 'some' track record of success and without term or risk is probably worth it.
Becomes a bit of a mess again on the Flames, however. Hiller has a NMC, or a NTC? I wouldn't pick up Khudobin unless the Flames could send Hiller down (or somehow trade him - which is next to impossible at the moment with his performance and contract). Replacing Ramo with Khudobin is at best a lateral move. May work out well, but far from certain.
