I get the fact the correct answer is likely Mike Smith, but I am going a different direction
I'm pretty weary of all of the Flames goalies pretty much post-Kipper and the narrative that if they string together 10 games of not playing like complete garbage that 'they are the team's clear MVP...where would they be without them?'
Look, its called average goaltending- most teams get at least that and it includes- yes - some games where the guy steals games for you
Smith was good at first, maybe better than good, and then for a long time he was soul sucking bad. yes he was their best player likely in the 2019 playoffs but talk about a moral victory
Ok Boyd stunk too- there were high hopes for him, but I think folks were just so desperate for good news and he had the expectations of a first rounder put on him- but he wasn't a first rounder- he just had that great world juniors that did him in
