So there are two teams in our division.
Edit: the Winnipeg jets also have Laurent Brossoit as their backup goalie. So they would look at it hard.

No harm no foul? Subban was 13-4-2 for Vegas. Gillies or Rittich having that kind of winning record and either one would be penciled in for 40 games on the Flames.
Subban's sv % was .910 Rittich was .904 ... I know Vegas played better team defense than the Flames but there is no save % adjustment that I know of.
King's back up was and is likely Jack Campbell.
