I don't know if Sigalet is "Great", "Good", "Terrible", but this at least shows that he has worked with Ramo last year, and got Ramo playing decently. If not for his injury, I would guess that a team would have picked Ramo up as a backup, as I do think he is NHL-calliber backup. Johnson has been great, and I regard Johnson as a really good backup thus far, but Ramo would have been a 'fine' backup.

Anyways, here is the Haynes article detailing what adjustments Sigalet helped Ramo with. I have posted it before in the off-season (or near the end of the last season). Again, not saying he has been good or bad, but just the only example I could dig up where Sigalet has helped one of the Flames' goalies improve.

Proof that the adjustment has worked can be found in the numbers. At the end of November, Ramo's save percentage was .899 and six times he had surrendered at least four goals. Since the start of December, he's posted a .930 save percentage and given up four goals in a game only once.

"By being a little deeper in his net now, it allows him to come across his net more controlled, more calm and compact and it's made a big difference in his game, especially in his rebound recovery," said Sigalet. "Even last game, the rebound when Max Domi had that great chance. Because he was a little bit deeper on the original shot, it was a lot easier for him to get across and make that second save."
