Treliving and Peters had Pickard as their goalie on the 2016 World Championship team; however, Talbot was the starter.

If they take him, it will mean they liked what they saw.

I think Flames will try for both leaf goalies.

Gillies doesn't need waivers and while Rittich does, hard to see any team taking him after the desperate Flames put him through.

Both guys go down to the AHL and Parsons is the top dog in Kansas. See how it works out. If any of the young goalies perform well and Mcbackup/Pickard fail, then call up the young goalie then.

Flames don't have to lose any goalie and will have an extra bullet in the chamber.

With goalies, it's a crap shoot. You never really know with them. The more options you have, the better the chance of lucking out.
