Well he did neither in Calgary.
I think this vote illustrates the confusing nature of the vote to me. Giguere would go on to be an awesome player, but in Calgary he was a fourth stringer when we didn't have great goalies. Less than 20 games started, few wins, poor save percentage. We're obviously not comparing him to Iginla, but at least Baertschi contributed to the Flames in the few (but 3x more than JS) games that he did play. Giguere was just sort of here.
If it wasn't for his success after leaving the Flames, this vote is a landslide for Baertschi in my opinion.
