And really, all the Flames need is a steady presence back there as they made the playoffs with below average goaltending as it is.
And what they REALLY need is a goalie who isn't going to drop a big smelly deuce in the crease in the playoffs next spring.

Lets be honest, if Smith is just decent for the year then this is a good trade. We made the playoffs last year after watching Elliott basically piss away two months of our season.
