Jon Gillies isn't their best goalie. So he's up here.
He had a poor season overall, but he was definitely their best goalie over the last two months. I think he played nearly every game.

I want to like Parsons, but the guy always seems to be injured or out of the lineup. Schneider was great in the AHL; pretty awful in the ECHL. McDonald had a solid ECHL season, but still - it’s McDonald.

As mediocre as Gillies has been, he’s at least been available to play (since his surgery anyway) and is the Flames most experienced minor league goalie. I don’t really want to see him in net, but he’s likely their best option if they need a third guy.
