Went with Zagidulin. Never seen him play, but his numbers are decent, albeit as a backup for a good KHL team.
Mikko Koskinen has a career .920 KHL save percentage. Zagidulin has a career .926 KHL save percentage.
The Flames 6th best goalie on the depth chart, likely 16th-18th in the prospect rankings, 842k goalie, put up better numbers in KHL than the Oilers 4.5 million starter…
In fairness, there is an obvious sample size / role difference between the two, but I still find this somewhat amusing. And who knows, the Flames seem to have slightly better luck with European goalies as of late.
