One of the best goalies the Flames ever had, for that reason.
Once he solidified himself as Kiprusoff's backup (with a good team in front of him for once) and also filled in for an injured Kipper, he put up some incredible numbers too actually.

He had a 2.16 GAA and .927 Spct after coming back from injury in January.

I think if he came back to play another year in 2005-06 the Flames would have been much better off and maybe would have gone deep into the playoffs (they would have had home-ice advantage straight through to the finals don't forget).
