Got news for you Gordon, any player brought in is a roll of the dice. Unless you're strapping a 6x4 sheet of 2" thick plywood to the goal posts, there is no guarantee of the next great goaltender coming to town and stinking the joint up. It might just be time for the Flames to go the same route they did when they won their only cup, and look for someone from inside the organization. Vernon was no world beater in the minors, but he turned out okay.
