I think its time for a little Eddy Lack anyway.

I like the idea of riding Smith as the Flames seem to be finding their groove, but they need to see what they have in Lack. Is he a legit#2? Or do they need to have Gillies and Rittich on speed dial.

I think Darryl Sutter said it best way back in the Phil Sauve era: The backup's job is to simply win hockey games. Your #1 goes through the ups and downs of a season with the team, but the #2s job is to come in and win hockey games.

I am ready for the legend of Lack.
