That's the wrong mentality. Where do you think Gillies is going to get the experience and confidence to be the #1 guy in the future.
Your afraid of Bishop getting hurt but not at all concerned with acquiring goalies who haven't played more than 25 games in a season. The fact they haven't played more than 25 games means we can't tell how good or bad their durability is.
Fleury DOES NOT want to come to Calgary. If Calgary was on the list of teams he would have been a Flame at the draft last year. I'm certain Treliving made the same offer for Fleury as he did for Bishop. You'd think Fleury would be all over Calgary as his destination given that there are very few teams looking for a goalie like himself.
