Not too worried about Lack. If he becomes an important story for the Flames next season the chances are it means the Mike Smith experiment failed for one reason or another which kind of dooms the team anyway. Maybe not as extreme as say Edmonton if Brossoit was a big story for the Oilers it likely means Talbot suffered a major injury and it's back to the draft lottery for that organization but it certainly would cast a dark cloud on the Flames playoff aspirations.
