Hyman would have cost an extra year of term and at least 600-700k more. The Flames and Oilers were in on him with Holland willing to trade to go 8 years. Unlike Markstrom they had just as much wiggle room and were not going to lose that negotiation. A lot more injuries with Hyman as well. He was amazing in the series.
Had the Coleman goal stood that would have been a 3pt night for him which is exactly what the Flames were after when they acquired him. Big game player.
