Also, is here currently a draft thread, or is there going to be? The search function on my phone (Tapatalk) is being useless.

The Flames have used an insane amount of picks and prospects on goalies throughout the years only to see their assets vanish into thin air. The best goaltender they’ve found was a free one from the Czech League in Rittich. The oilers found Koskinen in the KHL too. I’m pretty much done with this team drafting goaltenders. Signing free ones from overseas should be the new objective.
The only move I’d be interested in is finding one via the waiver wire (i.e. McElhinney) or trading a 7th round pick for insurance just in case an injury occurs or if Smith doesn’t find his game by the trade deadline.
