The Flames goaltending was deplorable last year. Are you suggesting there were zero options beyond keeping what they had? I guess no one knows but I suspect there was something out there. Unfortunately I can't tell you what was available because I'm not aware of that type of information being publicized.

Well I believe they were trying to upgrade over the season and they couldn't find someone that they thought would be an upgrade and could be acquired.
