(If Bordeur can be let go as a goalie coach for not producing a solid goalie, I think Sigalet can too.)

If it boils down to "the Flames have only had crappy goalies and no coach can help that", then why not either do away with the position or change it up until you get the most awesome coach?

OR pay whatever you have to and get the most awesome goalie already. Pick the top 5 guys statistically and get one of them. Johnny Hockey for Carey Price, Tkachuk for MAF, Giordano for Anderson. (good luck)
I read this as essentially a call to make changes for the sake of change. That is a terrible idea. Moreover, just because Martin Brodeur was the greatest goalie who ever lived, this does not on its own qualify him to be any good at coaching.

As for paying "whatever you have to" to shore up goaltending, I will take a hard pass on this suggestion. Hopefully reliving can resolve the situation more effectively and affordably than through panicky, reactionary decisions that cripple the franchise.
