Really which #1 Goalies are available ?
If they are not UFA's why are the available? If they are UFAs why would they think that the best place for them to succeed would be in Calgary where team defense is a secondary concern.
Basically the same concept as Dubnyk.... The Flames would have had to pay a lot more than the Wild to get him as a UFA last season , The Flames had to way overpay to get Ramo to come back. Dubnyk took less to play with the Wild because he was successful in their system.
Why in the world would Reimer choose to play in Calgary rather than stay in San Jose?
